1955 Chevy Bel Air Sedan

[Alex Flint]

This build is named SASQUATCH. I used a real car as my reference and inspiration for it. I painted it a Rust-Oleum Light Blue color and then sponged on some black to weather it. I eliminated the bumpers. The roof rack and the KC off road lights on the roof and grill are 3D printed. The leaf spring suspension lift kit is entirely 3D printed along with the transfer case, the driveshaft u-joints, and the wheels and tires are all 3D printed. The driveshafts themselves are made from scratch using a plastic straw I found at the dollar store. The grill was painted with some flat black acrylic craft paint and then the excess was wiped off to give it some more detail. The engine is a 3D printed Blackbox STL 572 Big Block Chevy engine. The Optima battery is also 3D printed. The interior is painted with a Semi-Gloss Black acrylic craft paint to make it look like vinyl. The carpet is some black craft felt. The NOS bottle and the mounting rack are 3D printed along with the Flaming River steering column, the steering wheel, the Sparco racing seats, the barefoot gas pedal and brake pedal, the speakers in the rear window, the high definition radio face on the dash, the milk crate, the headphones, and the 6 pack of soda. All of the items I 3D printed I found on cults3D. Everything except for the light blue base color on the body is painted by hand with a paint brush. This is definitely one of my favorite builds I've done.

That is a different take on a 55 Chevy Alex.  Pretty kewl looking, I'm liking it.

Like the different paint finish and the Overlanding chassis and drive train.

Very creative sacrilege. Such disgraceful treatment of an iconic 55. Lol. Nice build. Clever detailing.

[Horrorshow]

Now that’s a cool build…great imagination.

Cool idea for a 4×4 there Alex, I also have one in limbo for lack of parts. Really well done. 

Cheers,

A totally different spin on a Tri 5 Chevy and I dig it...
