1957 Chevy Nomad

[Ialarmu]

Hey guys, This one was a build I did just this week to try and get some mojo back. The kit itself was a bad fitting one (AMT) so I just had some more fun rusting and beating it up.

The paint scheme was inspired by those great old car ovals we used to have outside of town. I miss those days when "Joe Blo" could rig up an old car for "Crash to pass" on saturday nights. Great fun and good times . This car is sponsored by Paradise Pizza (fictional).


The only significance of Number "72" is it's my birth year .

That crapped out chrome on the bumpers and tail light trim really makes the build. Nice effect, man!
