Convert the 1986 Monte Carlo SS to an LS
Lowridingmike replied to Superbird McMonte's topic in WIP: Model Cars
You’re right. That’s not an Ls clip. These and the ls clips have been popped in resin originally from a guy named jevries for about 20 years, google him. Not the best pics but here’s an early resin ls clip on an old build of mine

Forgot to post pics of first failed race stripes in decal
-
Blue 3m tape for the win!
-
For anyone who hasn’t seen, this is what my lines look like using blue 3m tape. Perfect everytime first try!
-
And I can’t lacquer clear over that white enamel or it’ll react again. Gotta wet sand the texture the tape left in the clear out now. Y’all pray for me. Lol
-
And this crappy lime line brand tape lets me down yet AGAIN! 😤🤬 imma buy some good 3m blue like I’m used to that I know I can lay clean lines with and fix it yet again. That clear has been on for days and it still tried to pull it up as well as the bleed through smdh
-
The white is actually pearl can’t wait to unmask
-
Welp I got bored and went ahead airbrushed it myself. The wife offered several times but I figured might as well pick it up and become acquainted
-
Here we go again! Time to have the wife airbrush the white stripes this time. Lord, please let this 4th paint job go down seamlessly. We are so close now lol😳
-
Thanks mark. It’s been a long road nothing 1:1 and in scale!
-
New pic coming
-
And I pulled my own Lowrider out of hibernation for 6 years put the engine together new fuel tank rewired the whole car etc got it running and ready to finish body work on. We both wanna be in our custom Cars for the summer and it’ll be here before ya know it!
-
For anybody interested this is what I’ve being doing in 1:1. Lifted my wife’s project crown Vic put it on big rims built a crazy system and trunk she muraled and covered the headliner
-
Back to square one yet again… imma fix anything else I see now, reclear, then have my wife just airbrush some satin white stripes after I tape it off. So over this car it’s not funny
