This '59 El Camino has been sitting by my bench for way too long now. Spent the better part of the day hand painting chrome trim, engine bay, chrome pieces and clear parts. Attached the Blue and Red line tires to rims and wheels, worked on the Blown Cadillac engine and exhaust pipes. Trying my best to get this one all finished finally.

JOE: Reds on the front, Blues on the rear.
BUCKY: GM just had 3 exhaust, on each side, back then. As you can see, they look to be 2 1/2 to 3 inch pipes. I didn't make them, they came with the kit. Thanks to all for comments.
