tbill Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 (edited) Started this a week ago or so, have quite a bit done-ish, haha. Making good progress though, body is scale finishes GM rallye green, interior is a mix of scale finishes GM frost green and Tamiya ts-17 gloss aluminum. Waiting for decals and some detail parts to show up, but here are some pics of what I have going on. Also used AMT parts pack rear tires and decided to strip the wheels and paint them , hit them with testors pure gold, then fogged them with Tamiya ts-52 candy lime green, then dull coated them .
