Putzin' around this evening, Started on the '55...got the body off the belly pan, pulled out the interior, removed the old decals...and since I didn't want to stop, I took my pointed exacto and whittled off the windshield wipers, door handles, (what stock car has wiper blades and door handles) door lock ferules, pulled off the headlight lenses and taillight lenses which will be replaced with "sheet tin". Pulled the grill off and I'm going to remove the backing plastic that was molded in. Will replace it with some black window screen as a grill.
Calling it a night for now.

:text-goodpost: GREAT SCORE !!! :auto-chevybowtie: :text-bravo:
Sure like the shoebox from 55. :text-bravo:
Just about any double nickel I have found always has a pile of mouse/rat crap under the seats. :scared-eek:
Looking forward to your project builds, those should keep you in your slot cave for awhile. :handgestures-thumbup: :techie-hourglass:
Thanks for posting your finds. :bow-blue:
