Platerpants Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 (edited) This one is taking the muscle car approach instead of the typical belly draggin metal scraping builds. It will not have big ugly wheels either thats another approach to these cars that makes me want to slap babies(Never would). So heres a mock up, the car already naturally sat low so thats how it will be STOCK height. So here it is sitting on mags.The engine in a real car Not sure on a body color yet but i have time to think.

charlie8575 Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 The engine in your picture is a 67. And that air-cleaner ended up on a lot of cars because it's so cool looking. As to color, Jake, here's are the interior choices: http://www.oldcarbrochures.com/static/NA/Buick/1969_Buick/1969_Buick_Brochure/1969%20Buick-10.html Here are the exterior colors: http://www.oldcarbrochures.com/static/NA/Buick/1969_Buick/1969_Buick_Prestige_Brochure/1969%20Buick%20Prestige-72-73.html And some better representations. http://www.tcpglobal.com/aclchip.aspx?image=1969-Buick-pg01.jpg Silver with black might be a nice choice for this. Or Azure Blue with a white interior. Charlie Larkin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
