cobraman Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 Just completed this one . Added a small hood scoop . Added aluminum tubing tips to exhaust . Interior is Krylon Short Cuts red and body is Testors Blazing Black . Parts box decals . I raised up the rear end a bit . Somehow and I don’t know how I screwed up one of the side widows . I swear I don’t know how . Final assembly is normally where I have problems . I did have some trouble when I tried to mate the body to the chassis ..All in all a pretty nice kit . 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Geiger Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 Nice work Ray! I love a nice 57! People have forgotten that Ford outsold Chevy in 57! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobraman Posted April 18, 2021 Author Share Posted April 18, 2021 Thank you Tom . Hard to believe that Ford really did outsell Chevy in 57 when you notice how popular the 57 Chevy is and has been for many years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ksnow Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 Thought I had commented on this one, maybe that was in the WIP thread. Very nice build. I've been noticing the gassers more and more lately and this one is spot on. An inspiration, for sure. I like the gold touches on the engine.
