crazyjim Posted June 15, 2012 Author Posted June 15, 2012 Thanks, Glenn. The only place it'll be going is the IPMS nationals.
cobraman Posted June 15, 2012 Posted June 15, 2012 Nice car, nice color, nice detail. I really like the interior and what you did to the rear end.
crazyjim Posted June 15, 2012 Author Posted June 15, 2012 Thanks Ray. I cut the bottom of the rear fenders, glued on a piece of styrene, cut a hole for the license plate, and threw on some putty. On the interior I just cut holes in the side panels and then built new panels of different layers of styrene. I'm glad you like it.
crazyjim Posted June 15, 2012 Author Posted June 15, 2012 Thank you, Tony. It's a Vietnam ribbon plate, not cavalry. I'm a Marine, not an Army guy.
outlaw035 Posted June 15, 2012 Posted June 15, 2012 jim...another grt8 "LQQK'N" streetrod...shiny....
Bartster Posted June 15, 2012 Posted June 15, 2012 Beautiful! So many subtle mods it's hard to put my finger on what you did. Exactly how a great custom is supposed to be! I'm impressed with the door panels & your rear end treatment. I love the whole thing. Do l spy some "Crazyscale" parts?
crazyjim Posted June 15, 2012 Author Posted June 15, 2012 Thanks Neal. SHINY :) RULES! Just trying to do something a little different, Bart. Glad you like the interior & rear panel. The only Crazy Scale Auto Parts are the engine block, intake manifold, velocity stacks, and the seats. Lots of parts in my inventory that are real easy for me to get to.
rmvw guy Posted June 15, 2012 Posted June 15, 2012 I always like your poppin' colors! I like the custom treatment on the rear also.
crazyjim Posted June 15, 2012 Author Posted June 15, 2012 Hey thanks Ron. Poppin' colors, huh? They're straight HOK. There's more poppin' too, Ron. It's Friday and time for pizza, pool, popcorn, and WWE Friday night Smackdown. Oh yeah.
crazyjim Posted June 15, 2012 Author Posted June 15, 2012 Yo Stephan. Thanks. Appreciate it. And now to the pizza.
Harold Posted June 15, 2012 Posted June 15, 2012 That is a really nice Chevy. I'd love to see that blue in real life. Love the interior- is that the stock dashboard?
TooOld Posted June 15, 2012 Posted June 15, 2012 Oh yeah , I like this one ! Violette Pearl ? I've never seen that color before and I have to get some ! BOB .
Jantrix Posted June 15, 2012 Posted June 15, 2012 Jim you certainly do have a firm grasp on the modern resto-mod genre. Good work as always.
crazyjim Posted June 16, 2012 Author Posted June 16, 2012 That is a really nice Chevy. I'd love to see that blue in real life. Love the interior- is that the stock dashboard? Thanks Harold. It's the kit's custom rolled & pleated dash that I sanded smooth, drilled holes for gauges, used a wire loop to hold up the aluminum steering column. The steering wheel came from the parts bin.
crazyjim Posted June 16, 2012 Author Posted June 16, 2012 Oh yeah , I like this one ! Violette Pearl ? I've never seen that color before and I have to get some ! BOB . Thank you, Bob. It's an HOK color that I bought from Coast Airbrush.
crazyjim Posted June 16, 2012 Author Posted June 16, 2012 Jim you certainly do have a firm grasp on the modern resto-mod genre. Good work as always. I do? Thanks, Rob. Got your new spray booth hooked up yet?
Jantrix Posted June 16, 2012 Posted June 16, 2012 Right now no. My currect place is too small. We're looking for a bigger place before the summer is out hopefully. I also still need a indoor compressor. I have a line on a used one I might be able to lay my hands on.
rustybill1960 Posted June 16, 2012 Posted June 16, 2012 Really grooving on your body and interior skills Jim! That rear fender work is amazing! And what you did on the door panels are fantastic! I love the simplicity of it! Thank You for sharing Later Russ
Grumpa Posted June 18, 2012 Posted June 18, 2012 Great looking car Jim. I love everything about it! Nice work on the interior, and your treatment of the taillights is spot on. Outstanding.
