Today on the WorkBench, I am building the infamous “Christine” 1958 Plymouth Belvedere. I’ve heard some people refer to this car as the Plymouth Fury. For this particular build, and because the body is labeled as a Belvedere, it will be a Belvedere.
This is the first multi-colored paint job that I have done in many years. I think that it turned out really well. After the primer was laid down the roof was next. I sprayed that with Touch N Tone Gloss White. Then the silver stripe down the side was next. For that I used Krylon Short Cuts “Chrome”. Next up was the Krylon Red Pepper for the main body color. After that gassed out for 24 hours, I laid down Colorshot Gloss Clear as the topcoat, which failed miserably. I’ve used this combination in the past with zero problems but this time it didn’t work out. I guess that it’s Christine doing Christine things.
This has been a fun and easy build that looks fantastic! If you get the chance to build this car, I highly recommend it!
I hope that you enjoyed watching this video as much as I did building it.

Man that turned out really good. I’ve built this kit before and really enjoyed it. Someday I would like to build one in the factory color Buckskin Beige. That was the only color available for that year I believe.

Great video and a nice job on what is really a pretty bad kit. Not up to AMT's usual standards. The real 'Christine' was supposed to be a Fury, the kit is a Belvedere with some Fury trim. It does not go together well at all, the exhaust is particularly tricky and some of the parts in my kit were warped pretty bad. The engine is a real mess, seems to be part 350 B block (correct for a Fury) and part 318 A block (correct for a Belvedere). The distributor should be in front and it should have twin carbs and chrome air cleaners (as others have noticed).

Just one thing, christine had two cards with two air filters

I don't know why it's known as a Plymouth fury. Because the Plymouth fury slammer looks totally different in the front. But I've seen other 1958s different colors with fury on the box. Kinda hard to really recognize.
