Hey !
Kin I put that engine in my Chebbie ? T.B.
Thank you I have an old broken radio that I use for wire the 5volt stuff . I primed the body thinking about two tone brown and ivory
Good detail on that carburetor linkage and the body looks great so far crown!
my lastest up dated pics
have base coat of testors gloss brown enamel. some drying time then welt coats.
removed masking tape, some more drying time before masking again. I started on interior more pics to follow.
Man that's clean! This outta look really good with a coat of gloss on it. Wow!
thankyou mustang. lm going to paint the rear and roof ivory then give it clear top coat.
Supercalifragilistic !
Now that's a Chevy T.B.
thanks TB. I painted the rest of the body with mm gloss light ivory a few days drying time and remove tape. I did start on interior here is the semi completed dash.
This is scary .Do you mean there's someone else out there that does them like I do ? You know of course that means you gotta do a 56 and a 57 Too ! Nice T.B.
I have another 55 it's a converable and a 56 delray hard top. I did find a 57 maybe i will change from pastel colors to something more flashy ....
Removed masking tape still to tacky for clear coat.
I messed on the hood when a sliver spot of dust from blazes on the 1st coat of clear couldnt remove with out damage to base coat so in the degreaser pit it goes for now.Here is some interior pics with brown and ivory.I srayed clear flat on rug and seats to cut down the gloss and made the tops of the seats look like semi gloss vinyl.

Excellent work on my favority Tri Chevy. I owned 55 2 door hardtop 210 built at the St. Louis GM Plant in June of 1955. She was all stock, 265 V8, factory power steering, 2 speed Power Glide auto transmission, India Ivory over Cashmere Blue. I adore that car till this day but unfortunately sold her after having her for 15 years. She won a few trophies at local car shows when I lived in Miami.
Too many models to build, not enough time in a lifetime!!
Crown: Man just look at all that chocolate brown. I really like where you're heading with this build and am very much looking forward to the clear going on.
Ernie: Cool car! I've got two stories like the one with selling a car that I've owned for 10+ years. I miss driving mine ................but I don't miss the cost assosiated with the repairs. lol
Very nice chevy .I have a 72 sting ray that has some carburetor problems $$$ just have to wait a bit. I sprayed 1st coat of mm gloss top coat now a few days drying time
Ok I messed up the hood out of no where a sliver spot . THERE wasnt enough clear coat to buff out so in the degreaser pit it went . Oh well it happens
What is it with all the 54/55 hoods 'round here that have to go in the "stripping solution" so much? I've stripped my hood three dam times so far and now this! lol
Body's looking great bud.
