heppnerguy Posted September 4, 2016 Report Posted September 4, 2016 I saw this one on Steve Good's sight this morning and I had to run cut one, as it is a car we owned when we were married I simplified the pattern some because I did not want the name on the plaque nor the base. I still need to put the finish on it Dick heppnerguy Gordster, lawson56, Lucky2 and 5 others 8 Quote

frankorona Posted September 4, 2016 Report Posted September 4, 2016 Wonderful work, really looks very nice. Quote
rjR Posted September 4, 2016 Report Posted September 4, 2016 (edited) Nice work. DICK! Make a series-- of the fifties/sixties/ seventies classic and muscle cars and sell them as sets. You could do a 57-67 & 77 Chevys, Fords and even the Mopars too! Rancheros-- El Camenos , and the GREAT T-Birds! A few BIG FINNED Cadillacs also to have for the aircraft carrier fans!

Scrappile Posted September 4, 2016 Report Posted September 4, 2016 Nice one, I bet you wish you still had it. When I got married, I had a Sunbeam Tiger, my wife had a big '64 Ford Galaxy. Funny thing happened, Patti started driving a Sunbeam Tiger, I started driving a "64 Ford Galaxy.... Don't know how that happened. heppnerguy 1 Quote
Scrolling Steve Posted September 4, 2016 Report Posted September 4, 2016 Nice cutting Dick !.....57 was a great year for a lot of cars. heppnerguy 1 Quote
meflick Posted September 4, 2016 Report Posted September 4, 2016 Looks nice Dick. I haven't look at Steve's site in a couple of days. Love checking out his new patterns. you did a great job with this one. thanks for sharing a picture. heppnerguy 1 Quote
heppnerguy Posted September 4, 2016 Author Report Posted September 4, 2016 These simple patterns are fun to cut because they only take a little while to do. I cut this one before church this morning just because I liked the memories it gave me. I love Steve Good's patterns because they don't take much skill and he does such a nice job with his patterns and helps so many others get interested in scrolling. Thanks for the nice comments, but this is just a quick cut and enjoy piece. I believe it is one of the best 57 Chevy pattern I have seen. I really like the way Steve got the details without over doing its Dick heppnerguy Quote
DWSUDEKUM Posted September 4, 2016 Report Posted September 4, 2016 Very nicely done. Thanks for sharing this with us. DW Quote
heppnerguy Posted September 4, 2016 Author Report Posted September 4, 2016 Nice cutting Dick !.....57 was a great year for a lot of cars. I agree with you,Steve. It was indeed one of the best years in my opinion too. Dick heppnerguy Quote

You had to be there to understand why. Looking back on it without having lived in It,simply does not give one the understanding of wh it was such a great time..it will be forever imbedded in our minds, that I am sure of Dick heppnerguy Quote

Ralph, If it was all about selling these, I think making them and taking them to car shows would be a great money maker, But I made this primarily for myself to enjoy. That is a good idea though. Perhaps you should jump on it yourself and make some easy pocket money. A fun idea, for sure. Dick Heppnerguy Quote
Dave Monk Posted September 4, 2016 Report Posted September 4, 2016 That is a great job on a cool car. Wouldn't you love to have one now? dave Quote
heppnerguy Posted September 4, 2016 Author Report Posted September 4, 2016 That is a great job on a cool car. Wouldn't you love to have one now? dave Dave, I would indeed. The fun thing was I got mine for a trade of my previous purchase of a $550 motorcycle along with an additional $200. The bike was a 58 Ariel scrambler. The year was 1961 when I made the trade. I thought it a really good deal at the time and still do to this day Dick heppnerguy Quote
Lucky2 Posted September 4, 2016 Report Posted September 4, 2016 Dick, you didn't waste any time cutting this one out, Steve just posted it yesterday didn't he? It looks great, and I agree with you, just the right amount of detail. Len Quote
