Just rolled out of the garage. 1/12 57 Chevy Gasser. Scratch built the front suspension. Orion Silver and Lapis Blue with Testors Wet Coat Clear which is very easy to polish I may add but it took three cans. Man does this thing sparkle in the sunlight compared to indoors. Took me a long time to complete but I am very happy with the outcome. ;D I had made decals that said Suicide Ride but I like it clean so I left off the lettering.

Man .. what's NOT to like about a cleanly built '57 Chevy with the front end in the nose-bleed section !.. I believe this is the nicest example of pushing the envelope on a 12th scale '57 that I've ever seen .. and your color choices are spot on.. excellent work my friend ...
