'59 Cadillac

[Scottnkat]

Here's my Cadillac. This was done box-stock. I had originally planned on doing some things to it, but it went together so easily and I thought it looked good as is, so I ended up not doing anything extra to it. Paint is Krylon Short cuts Hot Pink.

Here's a shot from over the rear deck:



Finally, here it is with the top on:

Very clean build. You really did a nice job on the interior. l also use Krylon short cuts really good paint...

Hard to believe this kit is old now. I remember the buzz it created when it came out about how crisp and detailed it was and you did a great job with it. I remember people at the time saying there's really not much extra to add.

Must belong to Elvis? Great job, my all time favorite car. American excess epitomized.

[Mike Muncy]

Beautiful car man, I love the color combo on it!

[Gluebomber]

Really nice job, Scott. I've had this kit on my project list for a couple of years. Your model might get me going on it.

Is all the chrome trim Bare Metal Foil?

[Scottnkat]

Thank you all for the kind words.

Larry, it is all BMF. I used the regular chrome sheet. If I were to do it again, I'd do the ultra bright chrome so it would match the kit chrome a little more.

that's cool, Derick - I hope she has fun with it. My wife builds models too (as do most of my kids). It's a nice hobby to do together
