I have a few 51 Bel Airs and Fleetlines. Want to get familiar with the kits before I start to customize the others with some ideas in my mind. Plus, I can't remember the last time I built one out of the box, let alone stock. This is going to feel like I'm out of my comfort zone. One of the colors of the 51 out of the showroom was Moonlite Cream. I didn't want to go out and buy it even though DuPont makes the color. I found this Modern Desert Sand from Model Master in my rattle can collection and its pretty close. Primered - first coat - last coat.....needs clear

Nice color choice on the body. I see aftermarket air cleaner. On the electrical, distributor is chrome looking and a bit large. A stock build can help get a builder out of a rut and help keep the building urge going. Thanks for excellent fotos of a car I used to underappreciate.

Thanks for all your comments guys. Chassis is close to done. The fenders are giving me a hard time. Can't get them to all line up. Grrrr! Those globs of glue look horrible. Added the skirts to the body. Mock up before gluing skirts.

Yeah...fenders are not cooperating? Finished the interior though. Floor is flocked. Rest is white and Desert Sand like the body. This is my last post before I post the finished product.
