USAC_1957 Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 If this has been addressed previously, my apologies. Getting ready to tackle the re-released MPC Blue Max funny car, and was wondering (in general) what color should the inside of the body be painted? Body color? If it is left in "raw" fiberglass, what would be a good color match? Thanks in advance Bruce Harrison Anchorage, AK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hondo Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 Bruce, My preference for the inside of a funny car body is a medium to dark gray spray color. I paint that first when doing a body. I mostly do the '70ish cars and that color range is close to what they were then. Today's cars are different colors, sometimes matching closer to the body color or a carbon fiber color. On my Blue Max I used Model Master's Panzer Gray. Hope it helps. Hondo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
