1966 Fairlane

[Pat Cardz]

Here's one Ive been working on and off for a couple years, mostly because I ruined the first paint job and couldn't get the paint off the body. So I got two new kits and started on a new paint scheme. Here's the body as it sits now.

I am liking the color combo... I can't wait to see the rest of this when it's done. What are some of your other ideas for this one (wheels, engine...).

Thanks guys.

I will be using a 429 for an engine, sorry no pic yet, and the wheels are a combination of stock, Pegasus sleeves in the back and Aoshima rings in the front. Front suspension will be corvette and the rear will be truck arm (nascar inspired). Ive already tubbed the rear and added sub frame connectors. I made the fuel cell too big so I need to make a smaller one and reroute the lines, I had to deconstruct everything to paint the chassis anyways.

Here's a comparison shot of the chassis.

I usually don't care for multiple color paint jobs on models but I'm loving this one. You've really nailed it. The chassis looks like it is coming along great as well. Very nice job
