1955 Chrysler 300

Very nicely done Al.. Will be a gem when finished

First class job Al.

Only flaw I can see is ...............nothing! The engine matches the paint. Top stuff under and on the bonnet, Al.

C.

Engine looks fantastic, Skid !

Thanks all.

Hope to have an update tonight.

That engine looks awesome!

Thanks Max.

Interior is well underway. Just needs a little more work on the dashboard.

I'm impressed with the carpet flocking, something I could never get right. The gloss shine is spot on, something else i'll have to look into.

Engine does look excellent, something we all can learn from. White seats are bland an so flat (unwrinkled) to me, but I've done one model with white interior so who am I to quibble with the choice.

Like the dash - it stands out nice. The pattern on the seats really screams for a second color, maybe gold?

Looks good Al. I was thinking the same thing Mike, only Black for the seats.

Get outta here!!! flocking is easy peasy!!

The seats and door cars were done with Tamiya Matt white, then given two light coats of rattle can clear, to simulate the slight shine on vynl/leather

Hmmmm!!! I'll ponder that but I'm not overly keen on mulyi colour interiors.

Well I think all that the seats need is just a little bit shading with maybe light greys or cream colour.

Al: You didn't ask, but with this body color I think all white seats is perfect.

Thanks John. I'm going to leave them as is I think.

White seats,  white door cards and lining,  green interior metalwork...........


...........  Jobs a gud un

Thanks Colin.

Made some progress on this one. Interior finished and installed. Ditto the engine and tranny.

Looking great Al. Love the engine detailing.

Beautiful job, Al. The use of the color gold fits the luxury of the model '300' back then.

spot on mate

Thanks guys.

So this is how she sits now. I like the Candy Apple green much better than the red.

Wow, can you do me a 1:1 like that, what a great looking motor!!

Al, looks super. A nice perfect stance for a mild custom. I also like the green. Plus the engine detailing is very good.

I agree with you Al, The green really pops. Nice work.

Looks like another show winner in the making.
