bryan_m Posted November 13, 2012 Author Posted November 13, 2012 heres the white walls, sombreros and lake pipes......... i think ill start with the engine.... more to come bryan
Dr. Cranky Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 Nice choice. If this thing ends up looking anything like OLD SMOOTHIE you are going to end up with another great build. Cool.
Jantrix Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 what a good lookin car! Quite. Looking forward to your build.
bryan_m Posted November 13, 2012 Author Posted November 13, 2012 yea cranky i was thinkin about doing it in that style...... for you guys who havent seen "ol smoothie" here she is..... its probably one of my best builds...... more to come bryan
bryan_m Posted November 13, 2012 Author Posted November 13, 2012 i doubt it ray.....i will have a 69 nova coming soon that will be shiney. im building it for my girlfriend, she loves novas. cheers bryan
bryan_m Posted November 14, 2012 Author Posted November 14, 2012 im still trying to think of some ideas for this build....if you guys have any, throw `em at me........ i think its going to be light blue, with a white top. cheers bryan
Dr. Cranky Posted November 14, 2012 Posted November 14, 2012 Light blue body with a white top. Also, for a name play around with the letters in OLDSMOBILE.
bryan_m Posted November 14, 2012 Author Posted November 14, 2012 that sounds good too buddy.......im sure we will come up with a final name, it will hit me, just gotta keep bouncin ideas off my head..... cheers bryan
bryan_m Posted November 14, 2012 Author Posted November 14, 2012 oooh...good idea cranky! i collected some more parts......a caddy aircleaner by RMM, and a MAD distributor...... more to come bryan
GrandpaMcGurk Posted November 14, 2012 Posted November 14, 2012 LOWMOBILE Let's not forget the fuzzy dice Bryan, hee.
bryan_m Posted November 14, 2012 Author Posted November 14, 2012 i think i have a pair here Don! bryan
cobraman Posted November 14, 2012 Posted November 14, 2012 We all have a pair. Oh, you mean dice . Build it bold and it could the "The Boldsmobile " Are you going to open it up at all ? Blue and white sounds good.
bryan_m Posted November 14, 2012 Author Posted November 14, 2012 ha! thats great ray! nah, im not gonna open anything.......it seems like when i do that i lose interest. i guess i hate makin door jambs! its easy on a early 30s car, there really isnt a door jamb to speak of......but one this new, i usually get discouraged. cheers bryan
cobraman Posted November 14, 2012 Posted November 14, 2012 Hey Bryan, how about one of those old style barrel looking air conditioners on the passenger window ?
bryan_m Posted November 14, 2012 Author Posted November 14, 2012 yea those are cool, not too hard to scratchbuild either! good idea. bryan
bryan_m Posted November 14, 2012 Author Posted November 14, 2012 ive got the basic engine assembled, time to prime it..... more to come bryan
bryan_m Posted November 14, 2012 Author Posted November 14, 2012 thats it for me tonight fellas, im shot. tune in tomorrow for more of my insanity! cheers bryan
bodeen2012 Posted November 14, 2012 Posted November 14, 2012 i know its a 52 but here is a idea for you
charlie8575 Posted November 14, 2012 Posted November 14, 2012 Are those whitewalls the ones that Don specifically tooled up for the kit, or are those one of his standard offerings? Those look good for this. I might add them to my rep-stock. Charlie Larkin
