It’s a spray can enamel. I have a purple degreaser I’ll try. Perry

Starting on this Camaro for a friend at work. Wish I had a template for the windshield black surround. Hard to mask or hand paint. I see I will have to re-do the dash. Gauges are black with white numbers. One problem I am having is the paint crazed. I primed as I usually do, the sprayed a light mist of the red and let it dry a little. Then sprayed heavier coats. I've done it like this before and it's been OK. Now I need to strip it. What do you all use to strip paint? Perry

Thank you. I have to post some cars now too. Perry

Nice to see these Craig. I have seen his work up close and it is super clean and perfect. Perry

Very nice. Pretty color, kind of a willow green. Perry

Yeah the hood is a bit wonky. I tried to heat and straighten, but didn't want to stress it. It's hard because it's a 73 body and the rest is either 75 or 68 Vette. Still, I'm happy with it, and hope my neighbor will be too. Perry

Thanks Chris, but the wheels aren’t right. Perry

Looks really nice. Do you work for Schneider? My wife does, and is retiring after 40 years. Perry

I’m looking for either a 95 or 96 Camaro convertible. I think AMT made one. Building a model for a lady at work. Thanks, Perry

I’m not very good at WIP’s because I’m a slow builder. But, I’m working on a Corvette for my neighbor. It’s mostly stock, I’m wiring the engine, PE from MCG, a mix of parts from the AMT 70 LT-1, and MPC 74 convertible. Paint is a Krylon burgundy. It doesn’t show here, but I’m having trouble fitting the hood. It hits the windshield and doesn’t lay in place. Wondering if I should shave some thickness from the hood, or cut some off the windshield? Perry

That looks much better. I'd like to do one of those too. I would put the Rover (BOP) V8 in one. I also do 1/43 scale so there are a lot more LBC's available in that scale. Perry

I too would like a TR 6 kit. I also have a Mimosa Yellow one. I have a 1/18 die cast I’ve taken apart to paint. Need 1/18 scale mini lites for it. Any one know where I can get those? Perry

Saw this over on FChat today. Thought I'd share. I was out at Pebble Beach a few years ago, and though I didn't see this Superamerica, there was a different on I saw. Totally different look. Perry

I've got this Teapot kit as well as a Breadvan trans-kit, a 330 LMB trans-kit, and a Herb Deeks Lancia D50, and a couple other old resin kits. Perry -
Nice model. I like that look. I think the pillars you're chroming are C pillars as the B pillar is still in between the doors, just doesn't extend to the roof. I used to bring my building stuff with me on my monthly trips to the U.P. Also rebuilt my TR6 gearbox on a motel room floor in Escanaba once. Perry
