Did the truck this morning before work and just finished the '55.

The Silverado is from the 5 car box set of Working Class. A friend of mine has the '02 in a slightly darker blue. I got rid of the Nomad Gold tampos, and just added some blue flame licks. Applied some Testors bottle clear coat on the flames and a few other things, and done. Looks much better in hand. I was gonna give it to him today, but he took the day off.
The '55 is from the Classic Gold series. I removed the silver paint on the side trim, got rid of the hood and motor, inserted the Nitro Coupe's engine, and added flames. Just need to clear coat them.
Not having to paint a car for a custom is so much easier.
Thanks for the look.
