Lovefordgalaxie Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 WOW, this is nothing short of an art work!!! I would love to build one, as foiling is really a thing I enjoy doing. The colors alone are screaming 1957. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TooOld Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 She's a real beauty Rich , looks like you've got the foiling figured out ! You're gonna have to get more storage space for all these builds you're knocking out ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sixties Sam Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 Another 50's beauty, Rich! Love the fins and chrome! We had a 57 Dodge wagon when I was a kid. It was big! Sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramfins59 Posted December 6, 2013 Author Share Posted December 6, 2013 Thank you all so much guys. Bob, you're right, I do need more display cabinets as I am running out of room. I've been looking at some stuff online at IKEA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dominik Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Outstanding car. You did a good job on it. A lot of BMF-work...amazing. Only the colors are not my taste. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramfins59 Posted December 8, 2013 Author Share Posted December 8, 2013 Thanks guys. Dominik, I know that a lot of the 2 Tone color combinations on the 1950's cars did not appeal to everyone. The manufacturers did get a little creative with the colors, especially Chrysler Corp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Geiger Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Dominik, I know that a lot of the 2 Tone color combinations on the 1950's cars did not appeal to everyone. The manufacturers did get a little creative with the colors, especially Chrysler Corp. The good part is that you are varying the colors on your 50s collection. It will be representative of the era. Personally, I tend to see cars in the same colors over and over so I have to watch myself! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry P. Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Beautiful model . . . odd color combination but it somehow works. It's close to a factory combo... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Hall Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 (edited) It's close to a factory combo... The factory yellow seems to be lighter/softer, less of a bileous green-yellow that the Model Master paint appears to be..

Harry P. Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 I think Rich's photos may be a bit off as far as color balance. Actually a lot off.. Still not a factory color scheme, but in the spirit of one... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry P. Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 This is probably a lot closer to reality... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramfins59 Posted December 9, 2013 Author Share Posted December 9, 2013 It's close to a factory combo... Harry, that's why I painted the 1958 Dodge that I built earlier in Black and Yellow colors... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrObsessive Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 Wow! How'd I miss this one?? Beautiful job Rich! There was nothing like late '50's Mopar styling, and I sure wish I could have snagged one of these when The Modelhaus was making 'em. Who knows...........I've got a '59 Dodge body that I could backdate into a '57. Personally I like 'em better without those "sharks teeth" in the bumper though.
