raisin27 Posted June 5, 2023 Posted June 5, 2023 Did this 56 as a mild custom. Something you might see cruising the local Big Boy on a Saturday night. Shaved the handles and emblems, removed the "B" pillar, shortened and set back the front bumper then added a Canadian Meteor grill bar, lowered the suspension 3 inches, and put on a set of chrome reverse wheels with baby moon caps. The interior is done in mohair and a 60 Chevy steering wheel was used. Thanks for looking. 17
happy grumpy Posted June 5, 2023 Posted June 5, 2023 Awesome build and great color combo. The Meteor bar looks really cool on it. Cool background too. Beware of those big rocks, you wouldn't want to dent that beautiful chrome now would ya?.??
espo Posted June 5, 2023 Posted June 5, 2023 Great looking paint work and colors. The body mods look good, always wondered what the roof would look like if it was made into a Hardtop, they did offerer a hardtop in the 210 line. Nice job on the interior.
echo Posted June 5, 2023 Posted June 5, 2023 Saw many mild customs cruising in the small town I grew up in. You did a nice job on the model, excellent paint and stance. Nice details.
