mcandela Posted January 17, 2011 Posted January 17, 2011 This is a proyect that I've had for a couple of years. Bought it cheap but put it away with plans on a future restoration. The time has come. Going to build it with minor modifications, new taillight, new wheels and tires and a custom paint job. Hope You like it. Rear taillights modifications and color to be used. (color = courtney orange from the sinfulcolors line @ walgreens) Base coat = Duplicolor Chrome Color applied Will post clear coat photos later, still in the camara. Thanks.
Krazy Rick Posted January 17, 2011 Posted January 17, 2011 Honestly, I would never in a million years; think to use a Chrome base to shoot a Pearl-type Orange over... ...But I got news for ya... ..It looks Great !!! - Can't wait to see her done !! - Thanks
Kanedge Posted January 17, 2011 Posted January 17, 2011 Even the chrome base looked quite cool, but the orange is definitely very nice.
ewaskew Posted January 17, 2011 Posted January 17, 2011 Looking very good keep us posted. That color is just right.
Badluck 13 Posted January 18, 2011 Posted January 18, 2011 I totally dig the rear lamps!!!!!!!!!!!!! and the color too!!!!
philo426 Posted January 19, 2011 Posted January 19, 2011 I just restored one and it is a cool project!
Dr. Cranky Posted January 19, 2011 Posted January 19, 2011 Beautiful job. It's not easy getting this kind of paint job done right, but you hit the ball out of the park.
jeff ewaskey Posted January 19, 2011 Posted January 19, 2011 Man I remember that kit from my much younger days. Love the color idea you used & will have to try it. Cant wait for more pics
mcandela Posted April 23, 2011 Author Posted April 23, 2011 (edited) It's been a while since I posted some progress pics. Have been working it a bit a a time. Final touches on the rear lamps. Wheels I got from MA's Resin. (Superb quality by the way) Clear coat already on. Finished pics posted in Under Glass Section. Thanks for looking! Edited April 23, 2011 by mcandela
