Suburban
« on: November 06, 2019, 08:21:22 PM »
My Suburban that I got off Clearance at HL for $8.00.  Box stock, and brush painted.  It is a curbside model.

My plan is for it to pull a semi replica of Little Bud Moore's Piggy Park Drive Ins '57 Chevy dirt late model that I saw race at Myrtle Beach, SC in 1964.  I have it in the works now.  Maybe I won't run out of time before I get it done.

Really slick looking and just about the perfect color combination! Big thumbs up!
I appreciate people that actually build and post models.

Very nice build John, it will look good pulling a dirt late model.
I wish I could paint like that with a brush.

Great looking Suburban, John.
Love the colors and detail.
Looks like  photos in a Chevrolet brochure.
