Title: 72 OLDS..SASSY GRASS Green.."Play it to the Bone"
Post by: Gary Davis on June 13, 2017, 09:01:35 PM

 While watching the movie "PLAY IT TO THE BONE"..... (staring...Antonio Banderas, Woody Harrelson, Lolita Davidovich as the three MAIN characters in the movie)....I got blown away by the Waaaay Green 72 Olds. The car in the movie belonged to Lolita and she drove the two guys to Vegas for an undercard fight( washed up pro-boxers). This car got my attention as the long shots really made that car look and sound good. Sooo...I thought it would be a kick to build this movie car. 

I started this build a few months back using the Revell 72 Hurst Olds as the basses for the build. 
THE 1/1 Movie car ...

Hey Gary

That's cool! Love that color on there, don't believe I've ever seen one that color but I really like it. Looks like a really clean build. Good job!

I would never have thought that shade of green would look so beautiful on a Cutlass convertible.  I'm actually diggin it a lot, Gary!!!  Will have to check out the movie sometime.  Takes a real man to dare a project such as this, lol!!!😎👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🏁
