1987 Aerocoupe

[dan]

This is an Aerocoupe I owned for about 13 years.I sold it about 2 and 1/2 years ago.I have wanted to build a model of it for years and now I finally will.

Cool Dan, and I can bet you are going to put your skills to the task since you owned a 1/1.

Thanks Mark,Yeah I have pictures of it and I own an '87 Monte Carlo SS.It's white with burgandy interior but I will be able to reffer to it.I'm not putting T-Tops in it,I'm sure I could but I just don't wan't to go through all that.

Here is the chassis.I painted it flat black then I shaved rust color chalk over it and dry brushed it over the surface. Here is a sneek peek at the interior....

Nice Dan, the 2 tone interior is going to look good and the weathered chassis is perfect.

Thanks Marc,I just painted the body today and should have pictures soon.

Here is the body,I used Testors Metallic Silver and clear coat.I also painted the head liner and side pannel's had to mix flat white and flat black to get the shades of gray I wanted.

NIce work, Dan.
As usual.

Thanks Geezer,here is the engine.I painted the Tranny Pan red because it's red on the SS I have now.I can't remember if it was red on my Aerocoupe.

I painted the wheels with gray primer and silver.I tried to use the Good Year Eagle GT decals but they fell apart.
