AMT Chopped 57 Chevy pick up..

Contemplating the next project....I think this is an interesting possibility with a black and white checkerboard pattern on the cowling perhaps....

Thanks!

Post a pic of it! Sounds cool!

 

I don't have it anymore Eugene, that was back in the mid 1960's ! It was a chopped down coupe I built into a circle track racer. But it surely is the only car I ever did in lavender !

I am going to leave it as it is to represent a truck that was stripped down to bare metal and clear coated .

 

Ok, no argument from me. I get creative license like the 36 Ford I did in lavender and black and yellow one time many moons ago !

Added the door mirrors, figured that the realtively large mirrors would be good due to the chopped roof .  

Added a long trumpet like air horn..

Thanks!added some more details and it is nearing completion!  

Visors have their place. I think on this build it looks the part and the bare metal cleared look kinda fits the overall build. This in kit form or real life is one that you either love of hate due to how unusual it is. But, this type of build is what pushes the envelope and creates inspiration to go further. Some of the coolest builds were considered pretty radical when first done. Cool stuff.

I am considering putting this visor on ,what do you think?  

 

What I think is all that silver is a great base for a clear color or candy. Visors have never been my thing but non the less can add a touch of retro.

In comparison to a standard cab.   black and mexican baby names

Yes it is going well!

Yes on the visor.  Cool build.

And rear bumper. 

Installed the front bumper...

Thanks! I added a couple of model ship chains to the tail-gate.   

Interesting project. Haven't seen a chopped 50's truck in sometime. I also love that you stuffed in the 6 instead of a modern V8, great work. The bed looks amazing too.
