I was aiming for a traditional look with this build so it's basically OOB with just some small changes : Replicas & Minatures Caddy air cleaner & valve covers from Monogram 59 Cadillac convertible kit, tyres from the Galaxie 48 Fleetline with kit supplied steelies & Modelhaus (?) single bar flipper hubcaps. The suspension was lowered & colour is Nissan Magnetic Black from Zero Paints (green/purple flecks which doesn't show up too well in the pics) with their pre-thinned clear.

Hope you like it & thanks for looking..

Sweet and Simple... Looks great! :D

Of course, I have to steal some of your ideas... I was reminded I have a caddy air cleaner and the suspension mods were a handy tip.

That looks great!

Is that the new issue 49 and did it come with the louver hood? :D;);)

Thanks James

It's the new Revell kit - the louvred hood is an option included in the kit.
