Belugawrx Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 Nice build, fantastic color,like the pegasus wheels bump
Ramcharger Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 OOOHH!! Das nice! I like all of it, I think you nailed it.
Belugawrx Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 By the way, did you mask and spray the main stripe and pinstripe?
351 cleve Posted March 27, 2014 Author Posted March 27, 2014 Bruce.....Yes, I did mask all the stripes and painted with MM rattle cans....Thanks
peekay Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 That's really nice!! I'm not a big fan of stripes and big wheels but both work very well here.
Monty Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 For once I'm glad someone resurrected an old thread because I must've missed this one when it was originally posted. It wouldn't have occurred to me to use a Grand Sport-type paint scheme on that car, but wow does it work, especially in that shade of blue. I'd love to see some engine and chassis pictures too, if possible. Nice work, Thomas!
Lunajammer Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 Looking at it again, I have to ask, is that Alclad Blue? It's so radiant, like chrome.
351 cleve Posted March 28, 2014 Author Posted March 28, 2014 The color is Testors One Coat Lacquer Star Spangled Blue with two coats of Wet Look Clear ... cut, buffed, and polished.
D. Battista Posted March 29, 2014 Posted March 29, 2014 OMG...! IS THAT COOL...! is the first thing I thought when I clicked on this thread...! I like all the choices you made on this build.
Danno Posted March 29, 2014 Posted March 29, 2014 Whoa, Tom! That's gorgeous! Even in the artsy dim light, it's a knock-out. Do they call you "Home Run Tom?"
Teddy J. Tannehill Posted March 31, 2014 Posted March 31, 2014 Really Keen T Bird, I have always liked the 58. My older brother had one of these his was in rough shape. It barley ran when he brought it home...Dad was not happy....The car had been lowered by heating the springs...It was the victim of many "Shade Tree Mechanics". Gary loved it....When I ask why? He simply said "Its a 58 T Bird".....Dad must have liked it more then he let on...He and Gary fixed it up...It was never "Cherry" But "It was a 58 T Bird"...Yours is Awesome.....Here is the ugly version.
