Scalper Posted July 31, 2013 Author Share Posted July 31, 2013 Hey Joker the paint is model master Citrus Yellow Metallic rattle can .. Not an easy paint to use Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gluhead Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 Yeah. Excellent color choice. I fell for that "yellow" as soon as Testors came out with their synth lacquer line. It'll look great on that fat curvy body. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ridge Rider Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 Nice start, I'm really liking the finished models I've been seeing-thinking I need one. I would be interested in hearing of any problems or positives as this build progresses, If you would be kind enough to share. Thanks for sharing and looking forward to this build.

Scalper Posted September 16, 2013 Author Share Posted September 16, 2013 Do you think revell would send replacement tires for this car. when I tried to put the wheels in as per the insrtutions. the back side of the wheel took parts of the whitewalls off. argh Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scalper Posted September 17, 2013 Author Share Posted September 17, 2013 Thanks Andy Tip on The Wheels.. install the back part with the pin from behind , then just install the outer rim "steely side" from the front. hope that helps some people from avoiding wrecking the white walls..
