Chuck Most Posted October 23, 2014 Posted October 23, 2014 Just finished this. It's the new Revell kit, with a chopped top body from Morgan Automotive Detail. I used the DeSoto grille, sombrero wheel covers, side pipes, and lowered suspension from the chopped coupe kit. I also used some ribbed valve covers from a Revell Cadillac pars pack engine. Paint is Detroit Diesel Alpine Green with a semi-gloss clear coat.
Lunajammer Posted October 23, 2014 Posted October 23, 2014 Gettin' flashy all of a sudden, eh Chuck? Well it almost shines. Great choices on your selections from the coupe kit. I really like it.
asfastasu Posted October 23, 2014 Posted October 23, 2014 Is the wood painted on or decaled? Looks great! Where did you get the Detroit Alpine green paint from?
Jeremy Jon Posted October 23, 2014 Posted October 23, 2014 (edited) Love that colour, it looks fantastic & clean build, bravo! Edited October 23, 2014 by Jeremy Jon
Kris Morgan Posted October 23, 2014 Posted October 23, 2014 Very nice Chuck. Where did you get the color from?
Sixties Sam Posted October 23, 2014 Posted October 23, 2014 Very cool! The chopped top is nice! Great color, too! Sam
wayne swayze Posted October 23, 2014 Posted October 23, 2014 Super clean and sharp Merc. Nicely done!!
Chuck Most Posted October 23, 2014 Author Posted October 23, 2014 Thanks guys. Regarding the paint, it's Duplicolor, I got it at a local truck parts store. The wood inlays are the kit decals.
realgone58 Posted October 24, 2014 Posted October 24, 2014 Beautiful Chuck. I love the mild kustom touches.
Mister Twister Posted October 24, 2014 Posted October 24, 2014 That looks great, and as mentioned....Nice color. Beautiful work!
