Erik Smith Posted January 11, 2013 Posted January 11, 2013 Nice trio. I looked at the first picture without reading and thought "wha?..". Then I read. Nice redo on that Impala. Great looking engine on the Manx.
Sixties Sam Posted January 11, 2013 Posted January 11, 2013 Nice models! You did an amazing job on the 63 Chevy! What a transformation! Good looking Manx and police car, too! Sam
Danno Posted January 11, 2013 Posted January 11, 2013 Really good stuff, David! You gotta get those out to Goodguys and Desert Scale Classic!! Show 'em off!
slusher Posted January 12, 2013 Posted January 12, 2013 Nice collection of builds, excellent rebuild on the 63...
David G. Posted January 12, 2013 Author Posted January 12, 2013 (edited) Really good stuff, David! You gotta get those out to Goodguys and Desert Scale Classic!! Show 'em off! Thanks Danno! I may do that next time... if I'm not scheduled to work that day. Nice work. Which 63 is that? Thanks, I was told that based on the lack of a firewall and the simplified engine, that it's most likely an old AMT kit. Thanks to everybody else for all the kind words. I remembered that I also finished am AMT 62 Buick this year. I'll try to get some pics posted soon. David G. Edited January 12, 2013 by David G.
David G. Posted January 15, 2013 Author Posted January 15, 2013 (edited) I finally got a couple of pics of the AMT 62 Buick ready to post This is the first one that I painted with my airbrush. I used a purple base coat with translucent silver on top of that followed by clear. I just couldn't get a good shine on it though. I used the "lowered" setting for the rear axle and raised the front just a touch for an old school low rider look. Shaving the door handles and most of the trim helped complete the look. Thanks for looking, David G. Edited June 8, 2021 by David G. Restored Photos
David G. Posted March 12, 2022 Author Posted March 12, 2022 Hello Everybody! As some of you may know, I've been going back over my old threads and updating old photos and replacing broken photo links. To say that there is a lot of work involved in such a project is a bit of an understatement. I know that some of these threads are rather old but I feel that they are important just the same. Thank you for your patience and I hope you enjoy. David G.
