Mild Custom 57 Chevy


Pontiac Ed

Recommended Posts

Well I finally finished one. Its just the basic Revell snap kit except for a scratch built shifter porch, boot & straight pin shifter plus the wheels from '63 'vette snap kit. Paint is Testors Model Master lacquer dark bronze metallic with their one shot clear. It was polished with Meguire's Scratch X and waxed with Meguire's NXT. Interior is Tamiya Champaign Gold with body color accents. It was a fun build and hopefully it wil break my slump. Enjoy!

Very nice car, with a very nice colour. The '57 is still my most favourite Chevy.

If I may be so free to comment; the windscreen wipers would look better with a little bit black on the rubber part. And if you BMF them as a seperate part, they would've looked even better.

Good call on the wiper blades. I meant to do that and forgot. I tried to BMF them separately and I couldn't get it to work so I took the easy way out.
