mademan Posted January 25, 2012 Posted January 25, 2012 I scored this 2 door resin body off ebay a while back, Im really not sure who casts it, but it is great! its like working with plastic. I will be using parts box 96 impala SS fixins for it, including Chromes Engine Goodies that I had done a while back. I am still not 100% sure on rolling stock, but so far I am Liking the 2010 Camaro wheels.
montelsc Posted January 25, 2012 Posted January 25, 2012 Love that 2nd pic with those wheels looks great!!!
crazyjim Posted January 25, 2012 Posted January 25, 2012 Is it the wheels? For some reason the body looks shorter than normal. Good start and keep going.
MyBradKeselowski Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 Looking good, those wheels IMO gives it the right look...
mademan Posted January 26, 2012 Author Posted January 26, 2012 Thanks for the replies guys! Jim the body is about 1/8th inch shorter than stock so I'm guessing mabey 6 or so scale inches. Kasey- I think I will be using these wheels. They give it a mean, aggressive look and just seem to flow . I should hopefully have more work to show tomorow
Dr. Cranky Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 Moving along nicely. Love the engine compartment. Keep it going, please.
espo Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 Looking good, Now I know what to do with the Caprice kit I destroyed with some laquer paint that was to hot. Let us know if you find out who makes the body.
car-man666 Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 now you did it , ,,, i'm gonna have to find myself one and put it in my chevy collection.... darn..
mademan Posted January 26, 2012 Author Posted January 26, 2012 If I knew who made it < I would definatly share, I am still trying to find out as I would like a couple more. The quality of this resin, is like that of modelhaus, it is darn near perfect.If I do find out, I will let everyone know. Thanks for the kind words so far.
Dominik Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 Is this 2-Door Caprice real? I never had seen one? But it looks like factorybuild from Chevrolet. The wheels looking realy cool on it! Keep it going - very interesting to the result.
doggie427 Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 I think it might be one of Randy Frost's (Perry's Resins). I have a 92 Caprice 2-DR Station wagon that he did.The resin he uses is the same light tan and the quality of the castings looks very nice like Randy's.
mademan Posted January 26, 2012 Author Posted January 26, 2012 wayne.... any interest in parting with the wagon? if not, I would like to see a couple pics if you have any available.
