New Project: Monte Carlo Custom

Started a new kit on this boring, rainy, last day of vacation. Its the AMT 70' Monte Carlo Lowrider. Just giving it some new wheels and a new exhaust. Color may be a lightish blue with a flat black roof, but not final yet.

Re: New Project: Monte Carlo Custom

Sweet man, good to see another monte. As for colour I wouldn't do light blue with black if I were you, for a lowrider that isn't such a standout combo, there look really good white with tan interior, or black with black interior and gold pinstriping. Just a suggestion.

nice, exhaust system is sick. You make it yourself? I'd go a classic candy red for paint, or maybe a newer candy green with a black roof. Wheels look awesome too.

Thanks for the replies all. Yes, the exhaust was scratchbuilt by me. Used the stock piping for the piping (lol), just cut it and puttied it back together.

As for the color, what about a medium blue (ex: blue mica) with a tan interior? I think that would set everything off nice.

AFX Scale Resin makes a nice cowl induction hood for this kit.

Re: New Project: Monte Carlo Custom

just my 2 cents, i think you should do a light tan roof. black i think would contrast too much.

With the Mica Blue that would look pretty cool. But I think a semi-gloss black would look a little better.

Re: New Project: Monte Carlo Custom

If you're going to paint it mica blue then there has to be a white roof over any other colour, with white/blue interior, but it's just my opinion.
