Looks great, glad it was mentioned about being setback before I started mine

I dont use it , I've been using krylon color max satin on several builds and love it . The Charmin Prostar is painted with it excellent semi gloss finish imo

The squirrels found their way back in and totally side tracked me from finishing this build...well they left for the holiday and I finished up ! I'll get together with Tom and take photos of them together soon.

Very nice ! See those squirrels aren't just hanging around my house lol

Looks good ! Cuda or Challenger sitting on the bench?

Awesome work Really like how well plumbed the engine bay is

They sell curved stainless steel drinking straws at Walmart...if ya dare venturing in there.

Wow that's a beautiful truck awesome paint

The instructions show them as optional, they didn't seem to function but I'll screw with them again

Yep thought that was a cool touch

Definitely send him a pm, he said the intakes were out of stock but hooked me right up service was excellent plus

Just wanted to give a big shout out to Scott from Action modeler! I was looking for a specific engine for an upcoming project and he delivered in spades ! His base 426 engine and optional double plug valve cover w hilburn intake is beautiful.

Good idea , theres not much room for a wire hinge up front

Impressive work as always and trying new techniques that we can all use on our future builds to enhance them...thank you

Thanks ! My buddy suggested the color , at first I wasn't sure hearing gold. He always has great ideas, and this colors flips and flops about 3 different colors on the Edsel body lines

Have you decided how the hood will be tilted yet ? I just ran into that area , and gotta play around making some kind of hinge mounted up front behind the horse collar !

Exactly !!! Walk away it's the best shine I've ever laid down ...come back later and its dulled down...arggg . My buddy said it's a trademark of lacquer, but it doesn't bury details unless I get carried away w layers of paint . Warming the cans , and not rushing between coats is helpful. I usually have times when it turns milky from humidity , but it tends to clear right up

That's going to be a stunning build! Keep up the awesome work

Welcome aboard!

Not really anything fancy, I sprayed a light coat , wait 10 -15 minutes and spray again repeat as needed. The gloss doesnt appear right away during each coat, it always looks blotchy. I found it levels out as it sits. The annoying part is once I'm done spraying, theres awesome gloss...then as it gasses out overnight it dulls slightly being lacquer. I polish w novus 2 for improving the gloss

Thanks everyone I appreciate the feedback! Today was foil day..another skill I'm slowly learning, but enjoying The roofline has so many different curves , finally broke them down into smaller sections. The wide strip on top of fenders isn't trimmed yet, the molding is very faint and wasnt ready to tackle it free hand yet

Awesome work

I never refused entrants starting after the start date . Your definitely welcome to join us ! Your project sounds great. I did extend the build off til dec 31st because this lockdown mess so theres extra time to complete the build

Thanks ! I'm slowly getting better w rattle cans Thanks its testors wet look clear . I sprayed the roof w 3 coats of white lightning which is basically clearcoat...so the roof has 3 more coats than the body

Body is polished out , and decided to drop it on the frame for a look.. I'm still learning to polish these bodies out , using novus 2 w t shirt material. The roof turned out fantastic the body was slightly more wavy after wet sanding ..more practice needed
