I think you hit it, because the paint looks warn and faded. -
As do I. Same problem several years back
-
I pinged a friend who also knows Fred and he said all things are fine with him. Not sure where the story about his passing came from. Since Jim confirmed, I didn't attempt to contact Fred directly

Don't know. I'm 2,000 miles away now. I'll ping a couple of friends who know him to see if they have any info.

The wheels in the original 65 GTO kit

I have this original in the stash downstairs that I will check in the morning for what wheels are included

Arrived Friday, but I let it "stew" in the garage for 2 days since it came from Wuhan China. This is the latest Alpha Models 1/24 Ferrari 488 Pista. As in their other offerings, very well cast, where even the integral front end spoiler is cast in with the opening. I would love for more chassis and engine detail. Alpha is part of Hobby Design.

Nice catch. I will be doing the 44 Car plus a street LaFerrari (unless Tamiya gives us an Aperta before I start)

Adding flake to clear coat
Exotics_Builder replied to Anthonyf's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
I used a couple of spoonfuls of a Tamiya paint stirrer to 1/2 ounce of Testor Clear. Don't need much for a pearl effect. -
I had found these two, one of which is not the greatest

This one?

Adding flake to clear coat
Exotics_Builder replied to Anthonyf's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
This was done with Pearl-Ex in Testors Clear. Then it was clearcoated over. Doesn't need much -
Mine says 1969 on the bumpers. Looks like it could be. Definitely not a 67

Replied

I've got these if they will fit the bill.
