Wow... very close to the photo, nice work. But the wheels need a shot of dullcote.

[cobraman]

Looks great ! I have to agree about the dullcote.

Nicly done

[slusher]

That build does grab your attention, very sharp...

I did dull coat a set of wheels but I must have done something wrong as they came out looking foggy and milky.
I made several mistakes on this build including decal placement and other bonehead moves.
I will post more photos in the drag racing section tomorrow.
Thanks for looking.

Sweet six pack! Don't use dullcote. Try the "Looking glass" mirror spray from Krylon. It makes kit chrome look like real chrome and it almost doesn't matter what you do you can't screw it up.

Are the 1:1 car's wheels aluminum? Testor's Aluminum buffing Metalizer would be a good choice for that, but you really captured the look of the real thing with this build, especially the ride height.

Who made the decals?

Absolutely . Krylon's "actual" chrome looks very convincing , especially on valve covers and air cleaners . Highly recommend it . Works over gloss black (or naturally-moulded black) or even enamel steel or aluminum .

Actually, what i'm suggesting is even better...

This stuff is made to go on one side of a piece of glass or clear plastic to make a mirror. With no prep at all, just spray one coat of this on too-bright-kit-chrome and it dulls it just enough to look like real chrome. Best part is you cannot screw it up. One light coat is the same as one heavy coat or three heavy coats. It just goes to a certain point and stays there!

Awesome car, awesome build.
That 60's lace paintwork is so cool.


I miss my 69 sooooo bad when I see them.

[DumpyDan]

Really cool, is that a decal or paint down the center of the car..............either way love it!
