Joker Posted December 23, 2012 Posted December 23, 2012 Joker, Where did you get the '59 El Camino Body from? I'm doing a Resto on one of my father's models; a '59 Lonestar Camino. The 'A' pillar is broken and an entire mosaic looking piece missing from the roof from a crush I suppose. If like to repair, but the styrene is so acient that body work is difficult. Maybe I can ship the body to one of you masters to help me with??? Great thread Doc! V/R, CWO3 Beaman PM sent
jcbigpaw Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 Ive got to say that there is some great talent out there and if half of these get finished we are gonna have some great pics coming.
CrazyGirl Posted March 24, 2013 Posted March 24, 2013 going to do a 32 ford 5 window coupe something old school based on the very early 50's rods , you know , primer gray , red rims , flat head 8 , but not a rat rod , just a cool old fashion hot rod , to me those were the coolest , not that i dont like the fancy ones , but that old school stuff i loved ,,,,, so , can you show me what you guys have in primer gray !!!!
CrazyGirl Posted March 24, 2013 Posted March 24, 2013 Joker , your work is amazing as all heck , as are all the rest of you guys !!
mopar68 Posted March 24, 2013 Posted March 24, 2013 Obviously all amazing WIPs. But may I just say, both of these are absolutely perfect. One traditional and one contemporary. Both beautiful.
59 Impala Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Marshall, that Corvette looks great. It's been a long time since I've seen it. Keep up the good work. The truck looks great also. Dan
Custom Hearse Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Thanks Dan! I had a slight mis-hap with it. So I need to repaint it and finish it. The van is another unfinished project I need to work on.
CrazyGirl Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 i just finished looking at all the posts here ,,,,,,,, and wow , total major league talent

Tom Geiger Posted March 29, 2013 Posted March 29, 2013 Here's one in primer from my bench. I found a photo on the net of a Honda missing the body parts and wanted to see if I could duplicate it. 1
Pro Wrench Posted March 29, 2013 Posted March 29, 2013 Glad to see I'm not the only one that has WIPs that were started in the 80's and 90's.
Modlbldr Posted March 29, 2013 Posted March 29, 2013 (edited) Another of mine: 69 Super Camaro Later- Edited March 29, 2013 by Modlbldr
exesivefire Posted March 30, 2013 Posted March 30, 2013 I gotta few I can contribute to this one, I'm embarrased to say just how long some of these have been in process. 64/67 Impalla, started this one probably over a decade ago... long enough that I would probably do it differently now, and I'm at that point to see If I should start over, or fix it. This one always gets put back away before I decide S10 I started a while ago too, ended up not liking the chassis mods I did, and it stalled. 62 impalla got this far with it, then decided I didnt like it, so it hit the purple stuff and is back in primer again. I have many more that still havent even made it to the primer stage. This one is finished now, but I always liked how it looked in primer 1
Tom Geiger Posted March 30, 2013 Posted March 30, 2013 Glad to see I'm not the only one that has WIPs that were started in the 80's and 90's. That's because we are still waiting for the Testors silver paint to dry!
