Great stuff, especially the paint. What are the paint details on the Grand Prix and Edsel? I love those colors.

1965 Pontiac is Light Iris metallic , OEM color  for the year and model  , I had it mixed locally. Its a base clear urethane .

 

1959 Edsel is Tamiya TS41 Coral blue

Thanks all for the kind words. I really do appreciate it.

 

Yep. The Edsel is probably one of....if not my all time favorite build i have ever done. At the very least its in my top 5 ever.  I absolutely love the color combination

Who makes/made those Dodge Boys decals?  That's one I wouldn't mind adding to my collection if they're still available.

The ones I used  ' I think' I bought off ebay a SEVERAL  years ago. Might have been Fred Cady stuff.....I  Honestly don't remember.

Pretty sure they are still out there. Just watch for cheap copies  Ive been told someone bought and photo copied them and the quality is not good once you have them in your hand . PM me for details if you want more info .
