This is my type of build. Absolutely wonderful. What technique did you use to get the surface rust look on the trunk? Great build!

thats great Im super impressed what was your tecknec for doing the sun bleached efect?

First coat ruddy brown primer , then the color coat which was "50's Aqua" the two tone of flat white and some 1500 wet sanding. then I applied some weathering chalks with light dusting with the air brush of various rust, dust & grime colors.. I never dull coated the finish Dull coat subdues the effect dramatically from my experiences.

I guess all of those years of Being a Narrow Gauge railroader paid off after all. Thank you for the compliments.

The interior of the car didn't get overlooked. I would take some picks of it but being these were taken with my camera phone & it doesn't have macro they wouldn't come out very well . It has worn beaten down seats, The interior panel missing from the drivers door exposing the window,& window track and regulator with a pair of Vise Grips for a window handle. Sun glasses on the dash along with all of the junk left lying around on the floor boards. The jack & four way in the back seat . Guess the flat wasn't worth fixing? The previous owner left one heck of a mess when he ditched this old Chevy. Seems the owner was from Oklahoma according to the licence plate just about to fall off.
