1962 Chevy Belair 409

[crazyjim]

This 409 is my latest completion and I painted it with HOK snowhite pearl. 

[TarheelRick]

Wow, that is a real beauty and the pearl shows very well in the photos.

[crazyjim]

Thank you Ricky.

[crazyjim]

Thnak you Al.  That song was going through my head during final assembly.

That's one beautiful Bel , Jim ! 

Looks exactly like the kind I'd see cruising Whittier Boulevard back in the 70's ( I grew up two blocks up from the world famous Whittier Blvd. cruising scene ; and about 5 miles from the epicentre Bob's Big Boy ) .

Is this the Revell kit or the AMT kit ?  

[Classicgas]

Another beauty sir.

[crazyjim]

Thank you Tom, Craig, Jerry, Ray, John and Lee.

Front was lowered slightly to get the rake.

It's an AMT kit.

Beautiful looking paint, This is the car R & R singers were writing songs about in '62. Perfect stance and IMO the best ever style wheels for this. Ya I like it. 

[crazyjim]

Thank you David. Wheels came from the parts bin as did the L60 tires. I painted the wheel spokes with MM jet exhaust.
