The Roller doesn't really need much to finish it off.![]() ![]() The rat rod needs a tad more work to complete it.. ![]() ![]() The '32 is 90% completed,so doesn't need too much. Can you tell what the roof is off? ![]() ![]() Or the '57,it still needs lots of work but I actually would like to see it finished... ![]() ![]() I will leave it up to you guys to decide which one I finish. |

is the '57 Chevy a "Christine"? If so, you can never do your usual 'wreck-a-car' build - you would come down in the morning and would be all fixed up :lol:

OK to give you an idea of where I am with the 57 here are a few pics.![]() It is sitting on Jaguar XJ220 wheels and tyres. ![]() ![]() To make these bad boys fit a 1957 car meant cutting the rear end away and making a new chassis and wheel wells ect.. ![]() ![]() ![]() While the engine sort of fell out of the Jag and jumped into the Chevy... :rolleyes: ![]() That's pretty much where it's at right now,will see if I can do some shortly. |

Got a little bit done tonight,the big nasty mold lines on the front wing tops have been wet sanded down and look a lot better. It's only a small step,but still a step closer.

Been busy today,I got the body ready for paint.This involved filling a sink hole in one rear fin,a big sink mark running up the front of a door.Sanding the doors so they would have a gap all round once paint was on and doing the same for the bootlid.Then the front and rear window rubber edges were scribed to give me a clean line for foiling later on.. Then it was primer time,followed by a generic silver on all the panels. ![]() Then it was out with the cheapo Humbrol airbrush (perfect for car shells.. ) and on went six coats of Zero paints Plum Crazy and four coats of Ford clear lacquer.![]() The wheels are Plum Crazy too,I ran out of lacquer so the rear wheels still need doing! After taking a brave pill I intend to foil the rims... ![]() ![]() Just realised I missed a piccy,so will pop it in later on. |

Got a few colours onto the engine today.![]() Then I started foiling it,it will take a while as there are about 20 parts to be foiled... ![]() Quite pleased with the windscreen frame though.
