55 Chevy Belair

Box art is cool. 

What's in the box... 

Engine blocks ready to go. 

Interior color, tamiya dull red. 

Completed engine. I think I'm going to need to remove the headers to put this in the car. 

Base color. 

I'm not sure I like this. I wanted a super thick metal flake but maybe glitter clear was too much.  

Love my battery detailing. I don't think I've done 2 the same yet. 

The hanger oner! 

Putting the custom rear end on it.  

The rear wheels and tires.  

The fronts. 

Interior tub. Obviously switched over to manual transmission.  

Body panels went for a brake fluid swim and are going back into primer. Lesson learnt on that one.  

This is more along the lines of what I was looking for.  

Camera does it no justice. 4 coats of tamiya pearl clear. 

This is when I knew things were going south. 

Warped hood and other issues south, ugh 

Cover it with decals was my solution! 

 

 

 

 

 

Too bad I had to hide that awesome steering wheel.  

Engine turned out nice though.
