vintagedragfan Posted September 9, 2012 Posted September 9, 2012 the primer really made the body definition stand out, looks B.A. as usual man! great work!!
Prostreet Posted September 10, 2012 Posted September 10, 2012 Looking good Tyrone. Can't wait to see what you do with the paint.
tyrone Posted September 23, 2012 Author Posted September 23, 2012 (edited) Randy thanks alot... and I appreciate you looking in buddy.. Bill.. thanks bro, I really appreciate it.. Dr. Cranky.. thank you.. Joe.. I appreciate it bud..leaning towards a one tone, or maybe a two tone factory color.. Alright fellas I got a lot done yesterday... I've started on the electronics.. I added the sensors to the headers, I've got most of the pieces in.. I made a battery, still need to make a hold down, and add the cables.. I've added the fire bottles also.. still need to add the decals and run my lines for them,, and I used a kirkey style seat from Dirt Modeler... Should have some more updates later today... thanks for looking and comments welcome... Edited September 23, 2012 by tyrone

crowe-t Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 WOW, WOW & WOW!!! Tyrone, this is looking great.
GoatGuy Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 Looks great Tyrone. Can't wait to see more.
comp1839 Posted September 25, 2012 Posted September 25, 2012 sorry i didn't reply a little earlier tyrone. been a little busy. if it helps i took some close up shots of all the emblems/ tail lights/ grille and chrome on this '57. it used to the one j.r.todd drove. if it'll help. maybe some one can do some decals for you. these are a little out of my league.
tyrone Posted September 25, 2012 Author Posted September 25, 2012 (edited) Thanks Dave.. I got a Tom Mcewen 57 chvy funny car kit last week off ebay, and decals are good condition. So I've got the decals covered I'm trying to come up with the colors for the paint.... I like the two tone paint like this... Edited September 25, 2012 by tyrone
Dyno Davo Posted September 25, 2012 Posted September 25, 2012 Man, you are nailing this build, a honour to watch the progress
gasser59 Posted September 25, 2012 Posted September 25, 2012 Killer build Ty. Looks great now and it'll look even better with some color on it, whatever you decide, I'm sure it'll be a knock out.
cobraman Posted September 25, 2012 Posted September 25, 2012 That blue and white 2 tone would look great. Your detailing is first rate. Can't wait to see it in paint.
eviltwincustoms Posted September 27, 2012 Posted September 27, 2012 (edited) The blue and white isn't a tri five original color. I know you have done many in black. My suggestion would be to go with that aqua/teal color and white like an original 57. IMHO The blue just doesn't fit the classic car well. Edited September 27, 2012 by eviltwincustoms
W-409 Posted September 28, 2012 Posted September 28, 2012 Happy Birthday, Tyrone! I can't wait to see more.
