cobraman Posted April 16, 2021 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
Snake45 Posted April 17, 2021 Posted April 17, 2021 VERY nice! Might be your best build yet--and almost certainly my favorite of yours. Well done and model on!
BIGTRUCK Posted April 18, 2021 Posted April 18, 2021 Ray your a beast on all these gasser builds as of late. Awesome stuff, you know you may have to change cobraman to Gasser Guy.??
shoopdog Posted April 18, 2021 Posted April 18, 2021 Great looking build Ray! Revell's 57 Ford kits are top notch.

Tom Geiger Posted April 18, 2021 Posted April 18, 2021 Nice work Ray! I love a nice 57! People have forgotten that Ford outsold Chevy in 57!
cobraman Posted April 18, 2021 Author 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.
bogger44 Posted April 20, 2021 Posted April 20, 2021 Sharp build Ray! Love the gold bits under the hood. This gives me some inspiration to get mine started.
mustang1989 Posted April 21, 2021 Posted April 21, 2021 LOVE it! Great paint and very cool engine work.
Hmann68 Posted April 23, 2021 Posted April 23, 2021 Darn nice looking 57!! Love the black with red guts. Nice work man ??
David G. Posted April 23, 2021 Posted April 23, 2021 Nice work! I have one of these kits in my stash with plans do draft some custom decals for it. David G.
ksnow Posted April 23, 2021 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.
RSchnell Posted April 23, 2021 Posted April 23, 2021 Looks great! Did those valve covers come with the kit?
