jrherald420 Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 This is my best build to date. Still have a lot to work on and improve in my building. Color is Model Master Citrus Yellow Metallic, a $2.22 can of clearance paint from Hobby Lobby that my wife found and bought. I did BMF on the hood and around all the windows, that's a first for me. Also added spark plug wires, PE wire looms, a coil, battery wires and PE terminals, fuel line going from pump to carb, PVC line from breather to intake and did BMF on the air cleaner lid. Also did PE keys in the ignition with a Ford key chain, PE seat belts, window cranks and embossing powder for the carpet. Had trouble getting the 2 pc hood decal to sit flat. This build started off as a white paint job but had a lot of junk in the paint and after sanding i just didn't have enough paint left to do a second good coat. Here's some crappy pictures. Ill take better ones tonight.

jrherald420 Posted April 10, 2013 Author Share Posted April 10, 2013 Thank you! I spent about 3 weeks on and off building it. About a week for the engine, and a week and a half on the body. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
