Eloveless Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 I have learned a lot going into this build. Actually taping up before gluing. Gluing parts before painting when I can. Here is one night of work. Can't wait. My brother in law what's a purple and white TCU car for his office desk. Let the fun begin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBuick Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 Nice! I've always thought the '69 Goats are among the best looking muscle cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eloveless Posted April 17, 2016 Author Share Posted April 17, 2016 I agree that this year goat is very cool. Looking forward to more pics. Here is the mock up so far. This is the first time (BC I am still learning) I took the time to dry fit, prime, and dry fit again. All going together. My new Paasche VL dual action airbrush and compressor are coming in tomorrow!!!! Can't wait. Now I am using acrylic paint, can I still go over the body with enemal lacquer or is that a no no?

GMCMAN52 Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Looking good, as for the lacquer paint your going to need a good coat of automotive primer as the Lacquer is a hot paint and may harm the plastic if not primer correctly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any alternative if I go another route for clear coat after paint? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMCMAN52 Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 You can use lacquer and enamel clear over lacquer paint but you can't use lacquer over enamel paint.Did the steering column arrive yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snake45 Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 The fit of the front bumper on that kit has always been a problem. Requires some extra care to look good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
