" Route 66 Jada Divco Cruizer "

With at least 2 more Customs on the drawing table for my ongoing Route 66 Series in Candy Pagan Gold and Limetime Pearl , here is piece #3, the Jada Divco Cruizer.

First was the Jada Oil Tanker followed by the Jada Silverado Dualley PickUp, both in the same color scheme and Custom graphics seen here in the Divco.

Stripped, filed free of all imperfections, sanded and rubbed down with #3 Steel Wool.

Primed, the fenders are shot LimeTime Green and then Intercoat cleared and taped,

Sides, edges of Hood and bottom rear doors are shot Zenith Gold, InterCoat Cleared and taped,

Roof and upper rear doors are shot Black, InterCoat Cleared and taped,

Middle of Hood is shot LimeTime Pearl, Intercoat Cleared and taped,

Grille outline is shot Black,

Except for the Roof all tape is removed and the whole thing is shot Candy Pagan Gold with Bright Yellow Pearl Powder.

All Products Used Are Exclusively House Of Kolor, Of Course!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Roof tape is removed, Details and Decals applied,

Front of fenders and Hood are drilled out for Quad Rhinestone Crystal headlights.

Quad Rhinestone Crystal Headlights for Taillights and Blinkers.

Cleared with HOK Urethane Clear, a touch of Yellow Intensifier and Brilliant Gold Pearl Powder.

Custom Decal Graphics printed on Clear InkJet Decal Paper from Papilio.com

Custom Cut Chrome Center Caps dress out the Jada wheels.

Neat! This one looks like ts moving when it's standing still.

Thanks RMVW Guy,

I put a forward slant to both left and ride side panel window logo's.

What scale is that? I've never seen that particular Jada model. It IS die cast, yes? BEAUTIFUL paint job!!!!

Thanks George,

Unless I say different everything I work with is usually 1/64.

Yes, most all my projects are metal (Zamac) DieCast.

HotWheels Collectors are crazy for the Dairy Delivery and when Jada Toys came out with their line of DieCast they included these similar Divco Milk Truck versions to compete.

Great casting.

oh wow! 64 scale? incredible. Hey George, Jada does actually make one of these in 24 scale too though. That's really what I thought this was. Truly inspiring work!.. I have a resin Divco truck in the works to be scheduled for completion for October. ;)
