If I may I add, the rear package deck should be black not white. Factory would never build cars with white dashboards and rear decks - too much blinding reflection in the important windows. Back in the day, my parents had a Marina Turquoise 66 Tempest with matching interior. Gorgeous car, I was sad when they traded it in. I later was glad it wasn't a GTO - I would have been mortified if they got rid of one of those! My dad had told me he would've bought a GTO, but he couldn't get it with a bench seat and my mom liked to sit next to him when they drove. Va Va Va voom! thanks for the friendly advice Patrick. it will get painted black.

Bronzekeg Posted October 20, 2022 Author Posted October 20, 2022 calling this build done. thanks to all who followed and or commented. also pictured is another build using the same color coat but different base coat. 7
ksnow Posted October 20, 2022 Posted October 20, 2022 Great build, love all the detail work. Its amazing how a base coat can so drastically change the color coat.
XYHARRY Posted October 20, 2022 Posted October 20, 2022 Great build Ken, I enjoyed watching. I'll be doing some spray outs to see what can be done with different base coats on the same colour coats. Thanks. Cheers, David. ??
