I started to build this model as a fat fendered pro street I had cut up the chassis, interior and opened up the rear wheel wells. I ended up changing my mind and had to repair all the damage done with my prostreet idea. The Chassis and rear fenders was easy I grabbed the parts from an AMT 40 Coupe.
The interior was a different story the coupe interior wouldn't workI was looking through some kits untill I grabbed the custom interior from the AMT 57 Ford Fairlane. The rear seat had to be narrowed and then fitted to the tub of the sedan The speakers on the rear deck came out of the Monogram 37 Ford the shifter is a bent straight pin with a skull from a Rigor Mortise Hot Wheel. Gray and red flocking was used
Some where along the way I decided to chop the roof. LOL I had to be a nutcase cause a sane man would never have attempted it. The roof was cut into 7 pieces before putting it back together with filler strips between each section to get everything lined back up.The paint is Plasti-Koat with a maroon base and a green to gold flip flop over that as you can see by the box it ended up on the shelf a few times before it was done
