Thanks Dan, it is much appreciated! I may have to give it a try!

My latest project-Revell's Jaguar XK-E Coupe. I had to get extra parts from Revell DE due to a couple of short shots in the molding process. And, now to cover up the red plastic and change the color to Dupli-Color Forest Green Pearl with a tan interior. I've heard of using flat black followed by silver followed by my color choice to cover the red plastic. If I use a primer, do I use it before all of the cover coats or not? I want to do this process correctly and not to add my primary color in many, many coats to cover the red.

Thanks Carl and Guido!

I painted the surrounds on the front and rear windshields. I have to admit that this is something I have been putting off for a little bit. The windshields came out well, but the rear windshield now has a hole from all of the masking and the instructions don't tell you to insert anything red in the hole. Well, I guess that the instructions are just a guide and no one should pay much attention to them.

1971 Oldsmobile 442 W-30 Since the paintbooth was up and running, I added another coat of Tamiya TS-21 Gold to the body and all of the various parts in the kit. This kit is coming along slowly.

I had fired up the paintbooth and was in the process of shooting parts and pieces for other projects and I happened to think of this one and out it came with the remaining paint that I had and shot the roof and trunk lid. It came out rather well with what I had left.

Thanks Noah and Jeremy! I just need to finish the front windshield and the rear window.

The Charger is coming along! I'm still working on the windows for the Charger. I just have to paint and install the front and rear windows and paint and install the rear license plate panel and then final assembly.

Good, Jeremy! I hope that you enjoy the color!

Thanks Jeremy!

Thank you David, L M and Tony! I must have hit on the right combo of the red paint and the Cragars mags. I have heard similar comments here and elsewhere.

Thank you everyone! This Mercury looked better than the Ford Fairlane that it is based on and was just as fast as the Fords.

This is my Mercury Comet Cyclone GT built as a Day 2 car with Cragar SS mags and a 390 CI 4-bbl/4-speed engine combo.

Thanks Carl!

The Story It was a sunny Sunday afternoon when Jacob Anderson and company arrived at the destination for the drop-off of the Fentanyl. The transporter steps out of her pickup truck and she walks away from the truck with its shipment hidden in all of the small recesses of the pickup truck. Jacob and company move towards the truck and two of his crew get into the standard cab GMC 2500 pickup to drive it away to the processing area that Jacob had set up last year to break the truck down to get at the drugs. Suddenly, a group of cops and DEA agents come out of hiding and surround the truck and Jacob Anderson and company! Everyone is arrested and the truck is seized as evidence against the Anderson Group. Both Boston PD and the DEA have their work cut out for them and they are congratulating themselves on their capture. McNally is watching all of this from his vantage point high above the old warehouse area in Dorchester and smiling to himself. The truck was driven up from the Mexican border and in a big raid, the cartel was finished by the Mexican Police and US Federal agents. The Build Another coat of paint for the Charger body and hood!
