rollinoldskoo Posted August 8, 2008 Author Posted August 8, 2008 painted up the interior for my 63 ford..... needs a LOT of touchup work.... painted the top with some Tamiya pearl white too...
rollinoldskoo Posted August 10, 2008 Author Posted August 10, 2008 update on my 75 cutlass with the roof swap.... added some "tribal tattoo" style stripes and laid down a coat of clear...
rollinoldskoo Posted August 16, 2008 Author Posted August 16, 2008 guess not you guys taste in graphics oh well.... wetsanded the 75 cutty then foiled and re-cleared it.... once the clear dries i'll tape off the top and spray it.... almost done....

Okay this time i am refering to the color on the back of the roof.

Every time you paint a car we guess the color

rollinoldskoo Posted August 17, 2008 Author Posted August 17, 2008 got pretty far with the interior today too in a matching color scheme
rollinoldskoo Posted August 17, 2008 Author Posted August 17, 2008 painted the vinyl top for my cutlass today too
MrObsessive Posted August 17, 2008 Posted August 17, 2008 I LOVE the roof swap on that one!! I have a soft spot for those 1973-77 GM intermediates as I took Driver's Ed in a '77 Cutlass Supreme. Your roof swap is spot on! Not a big fan of the graphics but the super clean body work is top notch! I've got one of those Johan '75's and was thinking of that type project years ago.............but wanted to convert it to a '76-'77 car. There'd be a bit more body work involved though as none of the body panels interchanged 'cept for the roofline and maybe the trunk. Anyone remember when you could order those with a 260 V8 and a 5 speed?
Clay Posted August 17, 2008 Posted August 17, 2008 I love everything, your work is awesome Gil!!!! Just one question, where do you put all these wonderful builds at?
rollinoldskoo Posted August 17, 2008 Author Posted August 17, 2008 interior for the nomad is pretty much done....
rollinoldskoo Posted August 18, 2008 Author Posted August 18, 2008 ok the interior was more of a challenge than most kits..... first of all, the dash had NO detail... added parts box gauges tossed on a GN steering wheel and scribed some line in the vents for a better look...
rollinoldskoo Posted August 18, 2008 Author Posted August 18, 2008 then the front seats are molded in so flocking the floor was a bit more challenging..... but i got it done couple subs in the rear deck.... interior done...
rollinoldskoo Posted August 18, 2008 Author Posted August 18, 2008 made a speakerbox for my 56 nomad... back looked too empty
evilone Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 made a speakerbox for my 56 nomad... back looked too empty that is tight bro
