espo Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 Great looking Dune Buggy and the big metal flake paint job brings back some memories. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatW Posted October 24, 2022 Author Share Posted October 24, 2022 Thanks guys, both the Manx builds shown are in clear metalic/metalflake moulded in manufacture. Paint used on the driver/passenger area only, with clear blue acrylic on the wipers and engine housing and clear orange on the front indicators.

PappyD340 Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 Another great looking Manx there Pat!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatW Posted October 25, 2022 Author Share Posted October 25, 2022 Thanks guys, super kit! If you build one stick the tyres on the wheel rims. I used super glue! The tyres tend to be a slight bit big and soft rubber so when attached to the chassis the tyres roll off the rims! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
