To continue the '59 Buick theme... With the '59 Ranchero done, I used some of the leftover energy to start the AMT '59 Buick I've always wanted...
I'm happy that this one is finished after all this time and reasonably satisfied with the result. These pics don't do justice to the Candy Lime...
Making progress on the '59 Ranchero mild custom. Here are couple recent shots after the Tamiya Candy Lime was shot over a Silver Leaf base coat....
Thanks, Alan! This car started as a styrene toy version of PMC's Ranchero promo. The doors are longer on the '59 than the '57 because Revell...
After a year-plus my '59 Ranchero is back on the bench! Decided to do a full mockup in primer before final body work, a touch more primer, then...

Glad I have a copy - it's a really well-done book. Sad that it's out of print. I'm fortunate to have "Grease Machines" as well. Both are...
This very basic friction toy made by Product Miniature Corporation (PMC) was based on their more detailed dealer promotional model. While the...
Chrome wheels get the vote here in Philly! While I like the wires they seem too obvious a choice.
'56 Chrysler?
Count one vote for the wheels that're on it! And that from a huge fan of '57-'58 Lancer caps on just about everything.
The car looks beautiful! Congratulations! Nice to see that rare '58 Regal Lancer too!
The textbook definition of a perfect mild custom! Simply beautiful!
Given the quality of workmanship and detail, especially in the grill and taillight bezels, along with the styling, has me wondering if this might...

Brilliant work!
Your plan for, and execution on, this car is perfect!
Awesome!
I picked up this genuine survivor from the '50s in pieces at a club meeting awhile back. Just reassembled it yesterday. This cool Deuce roadster...
Thanks! The hubcaps were a custom option in 1960 3-in-1 kits by JoHan. Nice work on the Outlaw and the Bandit! I haven't successfully built those...
