Sixx Posted August 5, 2012 Posted August 5, 2012 Great overall detail and the interior really stands out. I agree with ya Terry!!!!!!!!!!
JasonFL Posted August 5, 2012 Posted August 5, 2012 Just mean and tough looking. I'm a big Belair fan and this goes right up there with my favorites. A lot of really cool clean detail, makes me want to get mine done. Nice build, well executed.
aksarben Posted August 5, 2012 Author Posted August 5, 2012 Thanks everyone for the positive responses, I'm glad you all approve! Question, how did you do the plug boots on the distributor? They look so cleanly done and real! Thanks Ryan! I just used a larger diameter wire, sliced wedges out of them, bent them accordingly and glued them at the right angle. Steve

Let's see yours. one more thing, what did you use for the hood hinge? thanks. jason I fabricated the hinge out of sheet plastic, it has two pivot points and is spring loaded. I also set up a release hook that is activated by a lever under the grill..
Grumpa Posted August 6, 2012 Posted August 6, 2012 This is beautiful Steve! I love the suicide doors, and the interior work is really very nice!

Harry P. Posted September 9, 2012 Posted September 9, 2012 Gotta be honest, the satin chrome thing doesn't work for me. But everything else is top-notch killer work. Very impressive in every way.
