55 flip top

yeah I'm at it again weathers been to crap to do any priming or painting so I decided to hack up another one. Reasonably simple one again and one I just happened to have a few spare bodies of............ the Revell 55 chevy pro sportsman.Now on its way to becoming a pro stalgia funny car.

You don't stuff around do ya mate, gonna be another tuff race car i think, like the rear wing!!

Sweet, bloody sweet. Wicked stance mate. This should be a killer

that's one wild 55 chevy in the making

This is going to be tough looking - when the weather is crap outside , the chop shop is the best place to be.

Thats going to look very cool

thanks guys, appreciate it ,I am toying with the idea of a slight wedge along the sides to drop the sills to parallel with the ground, was also considering chopping about 3/8ths out of the length of the roof behind the b pillars and moving the forward part back to meet it. Any thought on that anyone?

IMO it looks too long as is, would look worse as a coupe so shortening just the roof above the qtr dip would proportion it out a little better.

look forward to any helpful input, cheers Brett

Looks awesome so far mate. I'll be watching.

as you can see 90% of the filler (bog) is gone, just a couple of low spots to fill

Wow mate, i just shake my head, just when i thought you had done enough, you throw in a roof section job, now that i haven't seen before, looks great in the mock up, looking forward to this one being finished, TUFF AS Brett.

thanks mate calling it a night now

Thanks for looking in. Well mocked up a couple of different wings

1

2

3

I'm leaning towards 2 but will shave a couple mm of the height of 3 either way the spare one will go on the T Bird

#3 is my favourite, #2 is still tuff though.

Man that's looking wild and wicked,like wing #3,what colours are you going with

You're a sick boy Slammerfan, but I love's yer work!

Keep 'em coming.

thanks guys, yea I'm a sickness or is it its a sickness . yeah Al, after cutting it down a little wing 3 was def the one to use. Yeah colours picked , twill be Blue and white stock style

that's going to look cool blue/white

Thanks again Al, I really appreciate it. Took a couple of goes to get it this far, as the blue ghosted several of the joins back up . So a sand some future and a recoat seems to have taken care of that so far.


the blue is a candy over silver, had to decant it and spray through the airbrush as it pulled away from all edges and line etc then ran as it was so thin out of the can with the volume cans spray at

Looking great there Slammer!

Thanks bud ,did the white and some decaling today, had issues with the Slixx set falling apart on me but got them pieced together. Didnt really intend on using any but thought the colours suited it quite well.

That looks freakn awesome mate bloody top job

What Homer said and then some mate, great job.
Cheers Marshie

Looks evil The stickers just go perfectly together with the colours

Very cool,

that's turned out very wicked
