Nigel ChapmanLike what you have done Dominik, however you should do another one as a rat look with the original wheel & tyre combo as it really popped !
NeulingCool! Interesting to see how the wheels have changed over the years .............
Album info
This model is special.
I built it years ago, paint stripping failed, that's how I aged it. I wanted "something" like a HotRod and gave it the whitewall-wheels with chrome rims and red hubcaps. Engine and interior was in nearly new shape.
But something was wrong, I didn't like it.
Then Brian (SHORELINE, WA) found the model in my shop in the first lockdown in 2020 and asked, if I could modify one or the other thing. And THAT was what was missing!
The communication was perfect - I implemented his wishes and now the T-Bird was perfect from my point of view!
I cast different wheels, weathered the interior, enginebay and lights, removed a headlight and worked on the windshield....a.s.o
The first pictures show "that's how he was" - the following ones how he is now.
At this point, thanks again to Brian! Now it is perfect and has found its place.
