Hey all, this one is fresh off the bench. It's a 1/18 Chevy Nomad that looked a bit dull and boring, so I decided to 'bling' it up a bit. There are no major modifications on this, just a mild touch up. I decided to put some wood in the tray just to give it that extra touch of detail.
This is what it looked like before. ( Minus the wheels already been stolen Razz )

And after. ( these are the only wheels out of my collection that are close enough to 1/18 scale )

1:18 wheels for a haulpack maybe hehehe! Love the 57's in all shapes and you have really blinged this up nicely. The wheels dont work for me but the rest of the car is smooooth! Well done.

Cheers Dean. The wheels don't do much for me either, but they were the only wheels that would fit as we only do 1/24 or 1/25 Embarassed

Yeah. I missed it also. That's more than just a touch up. Looks like an overhaul. Looks great. A set of my 5 or 10 spoke wheels would look great on it. Or some street fighter wheels.
