55 Chevy

the 1955 chevy is finished had a lot of fun building it . thank you for your comments and I hope you like it.

some more trim and bumpers its taking shape

its been awhile between football and this 82 deg. cold front lol too nice to be indoors. Started with some chrome 

Thank you Duster

crown r n7

Thank you  progress has been slow 

 

But it obviously is worth it

Thank you  progress has been slow 

Looks great from all the angles I'm lookin' at it. This is going to be a great finish I can tell.

chassis is in place lets see how it sits

T.B. I was suprised also with the 55 but the 56 57 dont now the 58 has a lot of body chrome that comes separate. Thankyou Kenjitak BMF is tedious but works and yes mustang one cup is enough for me now but nooooo more expresso. Ok the glass in place and interior 

crown r n7

or just too much cafe bustelo

 

Foiling is tedious and nerve wracking but done well it's the finishing touch and your is well done!

Question ?

   When did they make the chrome trim on the quarter panels seperate ? I somehow missed that !  T.B.

Oh ?

 Well let me share this . After a whole day and a half the foil seems unending . Thing is I get to where I see the stuff out of the corner of my eye when I am doing something else . I think if you foil to much at one time the stuff stalks you !LOL.LOL.

 Never had this problem when I did autos ! T.B.

or just too much cafe bustelo

My hands don't shake .............but I get tired of it pretty quick.

I can foil about 10 min in the am lol then my hands  shake 

Um:

   You think that was a long time ? Try foiling a whole H.O. scale Railway Passenger car . It only took a whole day and a half .  T.B.

Thank you . it takes me a while foiling 

Good Lord that thing looks beautiful!!!!

Im done with foiling.

I am enjoying this build and the classic colors you have chosen.  

Thanks  My kid was eating a  chocolate eclair lol I thought ok way not

Great work, Crown!  Love the color choice.

Thank you  Joe still have some more to do lol

The paint work on this car is magnificent and the interior looks great Nick! That BMF really brings an already good paint job to life.

thankyou after a hiatus from all building. I started with BMF this is what I have so far 

Ah ;

 Sadly , for some reason they chose to go that way . It's not easy making it really nice on the edge . What I've done when I had a dash like that ( think REVELL'S Multi-Piece bodies ) is sandwich a piece of .010 plastic strip in there . Then sand it smooth , paint , detail and install .  T.B.

placed interior on chassis squared up wheels but didnt like the two peice dash.

This is a good looking build. Good job on the hood and the inside panel is top notch
