54 chev custom

this is a 54 chev it is an early revell kit i have had this model for some timee now and been wanting to chop and change things so i went to shoey for advice and he told me about our meetings on thursday nights and on the first night i already chopper the roof these are just some pics of wat i am up to now and i will ad more pics of the build soon

Cool - that's a pretty ambitious project - great work so far!

this is wat i was working with



i put it on a 40 ford chassi



remade the bottom windscreen frame

these pics are of the roof chop i chopped about 4mm



then i remade the wind screen pillars



i cut open the door and hinged it opened suicide

That's a serious undertaking, good luck!

then i used evergreen sheet th make the floor along whith a bit of bog


then i cut the front end off for the tilt front


then i glued the bonnet shut and hinged the front with a double hinge


i also got a sheet fo subs to put in the back and boged them in

i then drilled some recesed arial holes and boged up the bonet to make it smooth





then with a coat of acritic primer have now got up to the stage of this

On a side note ash, your pics are to large and there being cut off on the right. Your with Photobucket so here's how to resize existing pics,

>>>>RESIZE EXISTING<<<<

Currently your at this size


and need to make them 800x600 or 640x480
