Proline 50's Chevy

[Moonstonemike]

Picked up one of the Proline 50's Chevy bodies for my Granite. It was the Grey pre colored bodies.
Painted over it Teal and am planning on "weathering" the body so the gray comes through.

No idea how it's going to look?

That's a little closer to what I am picturing.


Any opinion on the grill?
Use the sticker or paint it chrome?

If the grill was flat it would be a no brainier but with the grills molded into the body a flat sticker seems awkward!

Here's the body after a run on the granite. It's wearing in nicely.
