Canada Jeff Posted January 10, 2008 Posted January 10, 2008 Just a straight ahead box stock build for this one (well, aside from the lakes pipes). The scallops are all paint work. Still a couple fine brush touch-ups to do on the chrome, but that's for tomorrow. This one will eventually be a gift for a co-worker who just got a promotion. I have a picture of a 1:1 just like it on my screen saver, and he always stops in mid-sentence to drool over it when it shows up in the rotation. I think he’ll dig it. Not my best work ever, but it turned out OK, I guess. Hope you enjoy….
novadose71 Posted January 10, 2008 Posted January 10, 2008 I just started building one of these to pull a Chris Craft boat kit. My computer desktop came from google images and it looks almost exactly like your kit, down to the scallops, but it has chrome reverse rims and the paint is a dark cherry red. I saved it for reference for my build. Oh yeah, nice job on your build.

mr moto Posted January 10, 2008 Posted January 10, 2008 That's a really stylish build! The Cool Factor is way off the scale!
Modelmartin Posted January 10, 2008 Posted January 10, 2008 That is very stylish and well done! I like it.
carrucha Posted January 10, 2008 Posted January 10, 2008 Nice El Camino. I really dig the scallops and low stance. Good work! carrucha
NitroMarty Posted January 11, 2008 Posted January 11, 2008 Oh Yeah..... I really like that!!!!!! Those red scallops look fantastic on a black car!

I assume you mean the one I posted below...Still trips me out that its a computer rendering. This turned out great, I love it! I need to get back onto mine now that I'm out of my arm cast, yours is totally inspiration to get mine done. Nice job. Edited January 12, 2008 by kk916
