56 ford victoria is complete

Good looking molding, which kit? As a teenager a neighbor had a new one, yellow lower, white top. Looked great, he gave me a ride after washing it so it would rid the excess water, I helped him dry it off. From then on if he was going to wash it, there I was, towel in hand.

I saw some back then that were turqoise (sp?) lower, white top, looked really nice. Solid black was a beaut too.

A few days drying time and BMF time

Nice choice in colors. Looks spiffy!

thank you 

Color is nuts on, looks great.

The mid to late 50s was a time of pastel colors and two tones, e.g. your green and white. There was also a tan, light blue (turquoise), pink, yellow,as well as two tones with black, e.g. black and red, black and yellow and black and white. Yours is very representative of the time. As a side note I leatrned to drive in a 58 Ford Hardtop convertable (sunliner?) and my first car was a 54 Ford 4 door with a straight six and a 3 speed on the column. It was more or less the color green you are using with a lot of rust color accent (real rust). The 56 Crown Vic with the 1/2 glass roof (tinted green) was the cats behind.

Half the car is with that  BMF and it is a bear 

Looks great. Nice choice of colors. Can I ask why you used the camoflauge as a primer?

it gives the green a more soothing shade 

Oh yeh, the 50s were also an era of chrome.

1950's car were so awesome, specially the ones from 1957.

Started with BMF one half done now the other

That is already gorgeous, crown. I've never had such luck with BMF on cars. You really do some beautiful work.

Man that is clean!!!

Well done.

I don't normally look at cars, but when I do...

I grew up looking at cars like that.  Very "Ozzie and Harriet".  Well done!

Oh, yeah...

Now BMF on the other side

Great job on the Bare-Metal Foil! I recently finished a model of a mid-'60s vintage Rolls Royce and my foil didn't come out anywhere near as nice!

Concentration a very sharp blade two cups of coffee and in the a.m. when very body is still sleeping and most important one panel at a time 

Looking good! Keep it up!

This is typical AMT. This interior was fighting me tooth and nail but now I got the bull by the horns cant let go now 

Well done. Remember, this was tooled in the early 60's.

Nice !!! Very clean.  What color did you use for the interior floor board carpet?  I know the seats and dash matched the exterior colors but the carpet would'nt be white or green would it? 

That's real pretty

What I used for carpet color is mm fs 30118 field drab its a med brownish look.
