'57 Chrysler 300C

Here's my take on amt's kit , definitely a fun build w good details . I wanted a mobster vibe,  low and sleek showing off the land yachts huge body lines and fins . 

Paint is Tamiya gunmetal cleared w wet look and polished . The smoothie steel wheels came from ebay, painted German gray w a wide white wall . Spares box chrome dog dish caps the wheel off 

Any comments welcome !

Great looking paint and color. I really like the stance with the painted wheels. Very clean chrome trim.

That's a tasteful looking custom, I love the wheels and paint.

Thanks ! The color seemed right for the theme , and the wheels were something my buddy suggested.  I originally left em white , but it looked too stark..hence the gray areas . That tied everything together
