Codi Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 John, how can I get anything done when you keep posting such updates and I spend half my time staring at them. Once I think I've checked out all the newest updates, BAM!, you post some more. btw, I see you went to the Chris Sobak School of Hard Fuel Line Installation. They are as straight and sweet as can be. I'm going to have to sign up for the class too. Cheers, Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gasser59 Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 (edited) I can only imagine how stunning this will be with the body painted, decaled and polished under your masterful touch. Tim's right, I can't get anything done but oogle at the pictures.What about exhaust pipes? Won't the body need some work for those? We haven't seen those as of yet. Knowing you, you probably will have them done in ten minutes and post more pictures for use to oogle at.

Chris in Berwyn Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 Beautiful work!! And you build so fast! I have a question about weathering the tires. I bought some of the Folk Art gray after you recommended it a few years ago, and have ended up with pretty good results, but I wanted to ask how much you thin it. And do you put on one coat, or multiples? I am using a brush - do you brush it or spray it, and any detail on how you apply it is much appreciated! This build looks great - looking forward to the final touches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
