    The 59s have always been my favorites. I had no idea that they made an El Camino back then, until I saw one at a car show back in the nineties. I gotta build one of those!

    You've got some good steady hands with that 'brush work' Louie. Great color choice, it turned out a really nice 'ride'. I've built the '59 convertible a while back. I'm thinking of giving it an 'overhaul'. Seeing yours really put me in the mood. Thanks buddy. 👍 🦘

    Hey-dar: yes, this is a cool kit. I have the older kit in my "work in progress" stash, you'd be surprised on how big that stash gets 😂 I really like the center-lines. I like the build tutorial, it reminds me of the hpiguys 😊 ugh, you didn't take advantage of the posable steering? Really like the color. Have you ever used BMF? No dash decals? This kit turned out very nice! (MODEL CAR)(MAN CAVE) 👊😎👍

    I do enjoy the video content you provide. I'm going to look for the '59 El Camino kit, but I was just at my favorite local hobby shop a couple of days ago, and I don't think he has any.
    Back in the day, I had a regular 1:1 4-door '59 Chevy, in 2-tone red/white.
    One thing though, I believe all the '59's had white turn signal lenses up front. They might have had amber bulbs inside, but that I don't remember.

    • @johnmeyer8098
      @johnmeyer8098 Před 8 měsíci

      Good point about the amber lenses. They were not being offered back in the day but can be replaced now as replacement lenses. It all depends on how original you may want to make it.

      @@johnmeyer8098 It's your build, you can do as you like.
      I just added the comment so people looking would know amber isn't original. Just to be sure of my recollection from years ago, I looked online today before I posted, and didn't see anything with amber up front.
      Again, enjoy watch your videos. This doesn't change that.

    Usually praises for the fine work you do, and true here again - but been meaning to say I find your videos most relaxing. And huge camera angle improvement! When it's time for me to do a '59, going to graft in my resin '60 wagon body to make it a '59 wagon.

    • @TheAutisticModeler
      @TheAutisticModeler  Před 8 měsíci +2

      Thank you very much. I’m glad you like the different camera angle. It’s really is nice people enjoy my videos. I do like to show my talent and hopefully teach others a new technique at the same time. Thank you for watching. Happy Modeling.

    Hi Louie that is a mighty nice looking El Camino. Nice color,that kind of colors are comming in my mind for a 50-60,s car. You got a steady hand when brushing. I wish my hands were that steady. Is there no deck-lid in that kit??
