Welcome Richard!

I've got to remember this tip. Looks very real.

When I was a Teen, what upset me was the fact that when I was 19 I was old enough to lead men in combat , but I couldn' t own my car in my name, or buy a beer, or vote! I have to live with the memories of the men who were in my Team that I lost! When I came home on leave I was still treated like a child by the laws of the country I was serving in combat.
I totally agree. Some things make no sense at all, do they?

What kind of paint did you use?

The problem with age is that when you're young, you're looking ahead and it seems like it goes on forever. You get frustrated when the road seems so long. When you get old, you're looking back and it seems like it goes on forever. That's why us old types always say, where did it all go. 8^)
Patience. Life will come to you soon enough.

Very cool!

Simply beautiful!

I painted the second part of a two tone paint job and have a problem. The first part is fine and I don't want to remove all the paint again. Most of the second part is fine except I got too much paint in one section and it's wrinkled up and will have to be removed. Do any of you guys have some sort of trick you use to remove paint from one panel (it's the trunk lid) without disturbing the rest of the car?

I do that too but I'm lucky enough that I just dig back in after breakfast. Being retired, you know, does have it's perks.

Paint and accelerator!

I really like it! I'm going to do something like this but my sign in the window will say "Not For Sale". People in our area are always "going to fix it up, one of these days".

I've always liked the 39 and 40 Fords. Nice details and love the color too. I think Barster is right, looks like a Nailhead Buick to me too.

Just throwing the proverbial wrench around , but......... We all get a touch of glue on our fingertips from time to time , correct ? You feel it , you wipe it off , end of story !
What happens when you get glue on the gloves ?
You're screwed !
Change gloves?

I've got to do something like this. I'll have questions for sure.

The Revell Colin McRae Ford Focus rally car and some wire wheels from Deeks for the 1950 Alfa Romeo 158 Formula 1 car.

I use the nitrile from HF. About $10 a box. The sies run small. I have small hands and the mediums are tight which I prefer.

Welcome!

When I master a nearly dust free paint job, I'll be asking lots more questions. 8^) Your rust work is great.
PS Looked at your cars on your website. Great work!

Looks great! I'm still trying to finish my first car. I've got a lot to learn.

Same here!

Nice! I used to vintage race with a guy that had one of them. His wasn't a drive it to the track type of car though. It was a full on race car. Here's a couple of pics. It's in the background pf the first one. It was really fast!

Beautiful! What finish did you use on the chassis?
