Re: ´57 Chevy Bel Air Custom Cabrio - WIP -
I like I like. I'm afraid I have to build one. I did a 59 Impala a while back.

Considering I am a total shoebox ('55-'57) fan in real life, I must give you some serious thumbs up on this car, you're doing an awsome job to a timeless classic and it looks great! I can't wait to see this thing finished!

Re: ´57 Chevy Bel Air Custom Cabrio - WIP -
Hi,
update: I cut a new smaller opening for the engine into the body - here you can see how much putty is on the body.  Here is testfitting of the engine of the Testors Chezoom-kit  Next: making a cover of sheet, new side-panels in the engine compartment to make it look "clean"

Great work Micha! The hood opening is very clean cut, and true. I'm eager to see more.
