om617 Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 Turned out great and the very nice with the little custom touch As for you`re 1:1,a driver with some patina have more charm to me then nut and bolt restored garage queens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grumpa Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 This is beautiful Rick! The "BMF" work is fantastic! Being an ex-model railroader, I never gave Floquil much thought as an exterior color, but this looks good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramfins59 Posted March 2, 2014 Author Share Posted March 2, 2014 Thank you Sam & Mark. Mark, this is the first time I've ever used Floquil paint for an exterior color,as it was the closest match I could find for the color of the 1:1 car. I usually just use the Floquil paints on interiors. First they changed the formula and stopped making the water based colors and now Testors dropped Floquil altogether.
