So I had to take a break from the 52 for a few months...kinda got burnt out ...so I decided to do a color change to a metallic silver and do a new look to get me by until Im ready for "real paint"... everything that is red is going purple and I just bought some cool hubcaps from a HAMBer to give my wheels a new look too.( havent received them yet ) Getting my chrome done next, then gl***... My grill was thrashed and even though I dont like painted grills, I went ahead and painted mine until I can afford a nice one.. not the best, but it does look better than it did... and with the color being silver, it wasnt too bad.. Anyways, just a quick update for my HAMB friends who have been asking. I added a few pics of it after the sun goes down... kinda glows!
With those crazy kids of yours,I thought maybe they did you in! HAHAHA!!! I like it! Sometimes change can recharge you interest! Good to here from you buddy!
Thanks Bob... yeah my kids do me in EVERY day! hahaha! but youre right, I did need a change to get me motivated again... I'll be seeing you soon....Cj
NO ****? I say,put the scallops on and clear it! Maybe do the roof purple like you talked about before...
I know.. Ive thought about it! I still have a few body work issues to work out though... I was going to get those done before paint.. I am still going to throw some purple scallops on it, I already have my purple flaked steering wheel too. I think I'll try to find someone to do a little body work on the roof, and spray the top purple with flake.. I already have the material for it..
Looks cool to me. With those rear bumper ends are you making a tail light change, Lincoln or a Merc tail light maybe. I love '52 Chevy's the only thing, I dislike are the tail lights. CRUISER
I agree.. Im trying to figure something out for the tail lights..but of co**** i want to do something "never done before" hahaha! you know how hard that is
looks really great,,,you're right, that ****in GLOWS. . i'm considering a similar color for my car, but with a slight greenish tint to it,
Thanks Ian.. to tell you the truth.. it was your car that kicked me in the *** and got me motivated again!! Ive got a ways to go... but at least its going again! Cj
Dude that silver kicks ***......I like the idea of the purple scallops and flake that roof anyways looks great you and Ian both motivate me thanks to you both
Man I dig the **** outta the silver, like you told ian his car got you in gear yours makes me wanna get my *** in gear and pull my 52 apart.
Love your ride. Cruiser hates the tail lights , I love em. But I could see a set of Packard taillights filling up all that space back there. Kool Ride!
Your car looks great, I must be the only one against the purple scallops. Less is more, and it looks good now, maybe someone can photoshop some on there ?
I went back for more and im stoked for you bro!! It looks great, it's refreshing, and it really shows how neat you ride is homie!! Did you paint it yourself?? If so, Im jealous!! A while back i tried to shoot polyprimer on the hood of my chevy and it looked like a 2 year old did it!! Great job homie!! IAN
