Spex84 Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 Loving this project. The vacu-formed wheel arch panels are fantastic. What sealer did you use on the decals? Looks like it really worked! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What sealer did you use on the decals? Looks like it really worked! I've been using Testors Decal Bonder for years only because it has always worked for me , why change if it works right ? Microscale also makes a brushable sealer and some guys just spray them with clear before applying them . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyW Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 A very clean build. The forward rake and thinned out wheel spokes are subtle but very effective modifications. I'm really looking forward to seeing yours completed. I rebuilt the same car, from a glue bomb, years back. I also made it a store display to sit on. It's a close copy of the real thing, but with a slimmer base. Here's a shot of it, alongside a couple of others I made. I'm a big fan of early Monogram kits, they have a look all their own. Tony.

ewetwo Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 I just saw this on ebay. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Monogram-PC-76-Yellow-Jacket-Ford-competion-Roadster-kit/274374003147?hash=item3fe1f709cb:g:jFwAAOSwX2xeyE5m Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Van Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 That seller has had a number of vintage kits for sale...none cheap....all pretty cool! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casey C Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 I acquired one of these kits today with a big rig kit that I bought. It appears to be complete though a few parts are off the tree, the box is nice shape and decals are nice. Can anyone give me an idea what it may be worth?
