Nice choice. Of course stock. This is going to be great.
Out of curiosity, .lee, where do you get your factory paint from?

Nice choice. Of course stock. This is going to be great. Out of curiosity, .lee, where do you get your factory paint from? As of lately, from work. We use Matthews paints a lot, I find something in their color books that is fairly close. |

Got it. I know you love to build stock so if you need factory colors, I still have some bottles from Resin Realm. Mostly 53/56/60 Ford, a few 55/56 Chevy and some 53 Studebaker colors.

Ok, change of plans. After painting India Ivory, I masked, painted Dusk Plum. It bled onto the tailgate. I was going to fix it, but I found out the purple metallic I used had a 8 hour window for recoating, and I needed to clear it. I would not be able to clear it in that window, so I went with solid purple. It was offered like that, Dusk Plum was a offered solid color. Here it is.  |

That is a beautiful color mate, the chrome will be enough to make that single color work i reckon..

Basic engine assembly and parts prep done. The carb on this is has nice venturi and throttle plate detail, think I will leave the air cleaner loose and give the carb a wash to bring out the detail.  |

Engine in basic paint, still need to add detail paint before final engine assembly. Yes, 56 Chevy Nomad V-8's were red. You could also find 57 Chevy engines in chartreuse!  |

Yup, I do like the color you have gone with. With wheels, tires, grill, bumpers and some BMF it will pop.
You're doing a nice job!

Very nice. What gauge wire do you use to pin the parts, Lee?
