Lovefordgalaxie Posted September 12, 2014 Posted September 12, 2014 Time for another old build!! This one started life as a prepainted Edsel, one of those black and red kits. I already have one built, and another built from a regular kit, so I decided to go the "not so factory stock " way with this one. Painted it Tamiya Mica Red, and left all the rest of the prepeinted parts alone, like the interior, engine, frame rails and suspension. 1958 Edsel Custom by Lovefordgalaxie, on Flickr 1958 Edsel Custom by Lovefordgalaxie, on Flickr 1958 Edsel Custom by Lovefordgalaxie, on Flickr 1958 Edsel Custom by Lovefordgalaxie, on Flickr 1958 Edsel Custom by Lovefordgalaxie, on Flickr 1958 Edsel Custom by Lovefordgalaxie, on Flickr 1958 Edsel Custom by Lovefordgalaxie, on Flickr 1958 Edsel Custom by Lovefordgalaxie, on Flickr
'70 Grande Posted September 12, 2014 Posted September 12, 2014 I can't ever remember seeing one of these Edsel kits built in a one paint color scheme before! It looks really good in solid Red! Great job, Tulio!
Ramfins59 Posted September 12, 2014 Posted September 12, 2014 Tulio, that looks really great. Excellent job.
peekay Posted September 12, 2014 Posted September 12, 2014 Like Mark, I don't think I ever saw an Edsel in anything else but two-tone - that alone makes it stand out. I love the stance and other subtle changes.
Speedfreak Posted September 12, 2014 Posted September 12, 2014 That looks great Tulio! Beautiful color and paint job. Did you paint that with a spray can? What's up with the orange air filter?
Lovefordgalaxie Posted September 12, 2014 Author Posted September 12, 2014 Thank you Gentlemen. That looks great Tulio! Beautiful color and paint job. Did you paint that with a spray can? What's up with the orange air filter? Yes, I painted this one with a spray can. First had to paint it silver, as a base coat, as it was black and red, and the silver was airbrushed. The orange air filter depicts the replacement units sold here. They are all orange, and not white like the ones you get in the U.S.
bestdetailer Posted September 12, 2014 Posted September 12, 2014 Back on after seven years been building just not on forum, great looking model love the color.
72 Charger Posted September 13, 2014 Posted September 13, 2014 Thats horrible just kidding Tulio Its fantastic as usual.
