realgone58 Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 After seeing Ramfins59 beautiful '56, I figured I had to show mine. This one is factory Iridescent green and Sage green two tone. I need to grab a modelhaus interior yet. More pics once I do the interior. Here we are so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PappyD340 Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 Looks great Alan, I like the color combo! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramfins59 Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 Alan, I love the color combo on your model. Just be prepared to do some serious filing and sanding, and fitting, and trimming when you get the Modelhaus interior. I had a bear of a time getting mine to seat into the car properly. Aside from that, it's a great interior with lots of detail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Geiger Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 I've got these! The '55 is the last year they used the Ideal name. It has metal bumpers. I wouldn't touch it since it's a decent promo in good condition. I got it as part of a collection I was given years ago. The '56 is the Excel repop and a candidate for the same treatment that Rich gave his. Maybe a Moebius Chrysler chassis.... hmmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Geiger Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 Tom, those promo's look great. Where did you find the '55, and who was it made by..??
