1 bad55 stan Posted March 30, 2015 Author Share Posted March 30, 2015 It's great to see that you're back on the bench again, Stan! This is an interesting project and it's always nice to see something different being built. I've watched these resin kits on Parts Box's webpage, but never ordered them. Maybe some day I will. Keep this coming. they make some good stuff,this wasn't the best casting though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freakshow12 Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 That will do just fine! As I said, I'm in no way a burgandy guy but I think it would have fit too. I'm going to have to get some of the blue you used. It's brilliant! Love it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeeCee Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 Now that looks AWESOME Stan, it would top off nicely if you added some of the GTS bonnet and boot stripes in a white or silver....maybe??... (That's hood and trunk to our American friends. ).. Beautiful paint job mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its starting to look good now that i gave it some clear mate,i got the stripes in black but they don't suit it.silver would look good but i have tried masking stripes with bad results,thanks for your input though.
