Zippi Posted August 11, 2022 Author Share Posted August 11, 2022 Going slow on this one but I did get the body in primer today. I'll be shooting the Tamiya XF-21 Sky topcoat on tomorrow. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew McD Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 Bob, I really like the natural look of your plug wires. What is your source of wire? I recently used "wire-wrap" wire and feel it has an entirely too rigid look to it. Those "big ole meats" look great; what's the source for them? I particularly like the tread pattern they have. I really enjoy your sense of hot rod style. Keep up the great work. Andrew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe the Big ole meats or from the AMT 67 Chevelle Pro Street or the 66 Nova Pro Street kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zippi Posted August 12, 2022 Author Share Posted August 12, 2022 I just got through shooting the top coat on the body. I think it came out pretty nice. This is a flat paint but once I hit it with the Tamiya X-22 Clear it will shine like a new pair of shoes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

espo Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 I like the softer looking color. Should really standout with a good clear coat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluestringer Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 Looking good Bob. I picked up one of these at HL a couple of weeks ago. Not sure which way I will go with it yet. I think I want to keep it a delivery van, but I don't like Coke so I'll figure something else out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
