beeRS Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 Andy - That's gonna be a real nice custom. Can't wait to see it complete. Show us pics of the chassis mods when you've done them.
bandit1 Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 Hey just fyi...dont know how it is for everyone else but im getting the "Picture has been moved/deleted" box!
Custom Hearse Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 The interior is really well detailed! Nice work Andy!
PowerPlant Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 That interior looks super clean. I also like the color
scalemodelworld Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 Looks just beautiful Andy. I love the detail in the dash.
Modlbldr Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 Love the interior. That dash is one of my favorites for a custom car. Just has a beautiful look with the right amount of chrome and paint detail. What tires and wheels are those? I need a set for my 51 Chevy build. Later-
Ajay Posted March 11, 2013 Author Posted March 11, 2013 Thanks for all the comments guys, Tom, the tyres are from the Galaxie 48 Chevy kit, the rims are the steelies from the Revell 49 Mercury together with Modelhaus Dodge Lancer hubcaps - hope that helps. Cheers Andy
kennb Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 great look to it,,,the interior is dynoooooooooomite! kenn
berr13 Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 Really like the chop and paint, and I think that interior looks outstanding!!
IMPALA SS 427 Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 Epic chop, the lines flow smoothly, I love the colour...
CrazyGirl Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 this is crazy cool ,,, i see this stuff and it just brings up tons of questions ,, like how you did that to the roof and what glues and fillers , and the engine paint , spray or brush , the interior is amazing
Ajay Posted March 18, 2013 Author Posted March 18, 2013 (edited) Hi all, managed to get the chassis up on four wheels I've had to take some liberties with the suspension to get it too sit this low. Basically axles are just glued to the frame - not very pretty but then I don't plan on displaying it upside down !. Not too much more to do now so hope to have it finished over the weekend. Thanks for looking. Andy Edited March 19, 2013 by Ajay
drifterdon Posted March 19, 2013 Posted March 19, 2013 Great looking build Andy. Can't wait to see the finished kit. Your interior is flawless.
mnwildpunk Posted March 19, 2013 Posted March 19, 2013 Love the color that flathead is beautiful. It flows like water amazing
Ajay Posted March 20, 2013 Author Posted March 20, 2013 (edited) this is crazy cool ,,, i see this stuff and it just brings up tons of questions ,, like how you did that to the roof and what glues and fillers , and the engine paint , spray or brush , the interior is amazing Thanks Anne & sorry for the delay in replying. For the chop I started by cutting off the door pillars and then made two cuts A/B and then removed a slice from the rear pillars. With the door pillars gone I could then gently bend down the roof to meet the loweedr rear pillars. The resulting gap in the top of the roof was filled in with Evergeen plastic sheet and Tamiya Epoxy filler. The slanted door pillars C and rain channel were added with sheet plastic and the door line scribered in. I normally use Humbrol liquid cement. Hope above makes sense but this picture may help. The engine was sprayed with the same paint as the body through an airbrush. Cheers Andy Edited March 20, 2013 by Ajay
freakshow12 Posted March 21, 2013 Posted March 21, 2013 I love this. Great job and the perfect color!
