Plowboy Posted July 15, 2020 Posted July 15, 2020 Just finished this one up. It's an old project that I started years ago when someone asked how to fix the drooping rear section. I hatched a plan, hacked it up, put it back together, got it painted, didn't like it, stripped it, got it back in primer and lost interest for years. When I canned it, all I had left to do was paint the body, bumpers and assemble it with a few added details. So, there wasn't a lot of work left to do. I painted the body with Model Masters Dark Bronze, Tamiya Pure White with Tamiya Clear and gave it a quicky polish. I added wheels and tires from the Revell '32 Ford. Also added a few photos etch pieces to finish it off. Thanx for checking it out!
espo Posted July 15, 2020 Posted July 15, 2020 Great looking build. The stance is just right and those wheels make a big difference in the overall look. Nice engine details and an Inter State Battery I see.
TransAmMike Posted July 15, 2020 Posted July 15, 2020 Great looking '67 R/T. Had a friend back then in '67 who had a black on black Street Hemi. Car had incredible power. Funny story, if you were in the passenger seat during speed shifting the glove box door would pop open with every shift and hit you on the knees.
Deuces ll Posted July 15, 2020 Posted July 15, 2020 Ummm.... Can I take it around the block for a spin?????...... ?
Dragonhawk1066 Posted July 15, 2020 Posted July 15, 2020 Very nice! Great job on the engine and firewall details!
gman Posted July 16, 2020 Posted July 16, 2020 That really deserved to be woken from its slumber and finished. Excellent job.
shoopdog Posted July 16, 2020 Posted July 16, 2020 Turned out exceptionaly well and you nailed the stance.
BeakDoc Posted July 18, 2020 Posted July 18, 2020 Awesome build! It kinda has a stately, grocery getter, sleeper vibe to it that I really dig.
TooOld Posted July 19, 2020 Posted July 19, 2020 Another beauty Roger ! Dang those wheels and tires look great on everything !
Plowboy Posted July 20, 2020 Author Posted July 20, 2020 Thanx everyone for all of the great comments! I appreciate them! On 7/19/2020 at 6:30 AM, TooOld said: Another beauty Roger !

I'm actually thinking about going back to the Keystones I had on it originally or using the Magnums from the kit on the front with a pair from the Buick GSX on the rear.
bogger44 Posted July 21, 2020 Posted July 21, 2020 Roger, the surgery you performed to correct the droopy rear makes for a big improvement, I'm currently working on one of these and the rear end on these is a disappointment but am building it as-is. I have always liked your building style, and this one is no exception. Nice work and glad you brought it back to the bench and were able to finish it.
Hmann68 Posted July 22, 2020 Posted July 22, 2020 Man that’s a nice Coronet! You nailed the stance and the wheels are perfect for it. Love the white top too ?
Plowboy Posted July 24, 2020 Author Posted July 24, 2020 Thanx to everyone for all of the great comments! I appreciate it!
