'50 Olds 442 Muscle Car

[bondo bill]

Here's some finished views of a '50s muscle car with a '69 Olds engine and parts that I started back in the spring. I've had lots of other projects distract me over the summer, but I finally got around to finishing her off.

I removed the vent windows, B-pillar and middle grille bar. Some shocks were put into the rear end, rummaged through the parts box for the tires, and I added some Testors lacquer and foil. Otherwise, minimal changes to the build. Comments welcome!

WOW, very creative and impressive build...

Very nice but does that big honkin' V8 start with that 6 volt battery??

Aside from the battery (should've added a 12-volt), an interesting idea and a very creative build.

I like it, but as mentioned, the stripes are too short.

This is the best 50 Olds built so far.

thanks for all the comments guys -oops on the battery it was late i was tired grabbed the wrong one , i noticed i also forgot the wipers and side mirror- i tried longer stripes but then they started curving over the hood side etc, so i trimmed them as you see

Fantastic job, I think it was born to wear these colors. Makes me want to crack my 50 open for sure.
