'57 Chevy Mild Modern Custom

[Pontiac Ed]

This is my first full foil job. The paint is Testor's MM Dark Bronze Metallic over white Tamiya primer with Tamiya Mica Silver on the insert. The emblems, fender gills and door handles were removed. It still needs the gunsights painted, cleared over the foil job, the grill black washed and the dash needs detailing. The interior is the body color with Tamiya Champaign Gold and has a scratched shifter porch and shift boot with a straight pin shifter. I'm using the large Torque Thrusts from the Revell '63 'vette snap kit. Enjoy

Sweet looking '57 That's a sharp color for that car. I can't wait to see it finished.

Painted the gun sights & the 1/4 emblems and got it cleared with the new MM lacquer. I'm not completely happy with the way the clear laid down. It seemed kind of rough. I blacked out the grill cause I had problems with the wash. Polished it quickly with Meguire's Scratch X & waxed with Meguire's NXT. I should probably go back after it again. Anyway here it is dropped down over the frame.

That is lookin' mighty fine, there sir! Your pics must hide what you don't like about the clear, because it looks pretty decent from here. Can't wait to see it 'er done!
