Chopped 34 5W Coupe Empty Chopped 34 5W Coupe

Post by cdansie Thu 06 Jun 2013, 3:36 pm

I have gone straight to the Showroom with this because I accidentally deleted the few build photos that I took.

The body is from Drag City Castings and was just a pleasure to work with. It fitted up to the AMT 5W kit perfectly.
I replaced the front and rear ends with a dropped axle/nine inch combo from a Rev 32 kit
Wheels are from the Rev 32 Highboy
Everything else is basically from the AMT kit.
I did paint the dash in the body color. I am using this one in ASR and the grey showed the dash detail a bit better
This was a fairly quick and easy build.
The color is a custom mix of Testors light and dark blue
It is highly likely the fully size chopped 33 in the shed will end up looking like this.
