Stephen, Thanks for the good info. When you painted the car with Tamiya paint, how dark was it? I plan on building car in the top picture. Chuck Boerner is doing the decals for that car and I thought that the Dupli- color would work fine but I' am going to test hat paint out. Thanks again.

Thanks everybody for the input. I will see what I can up with. I have some pictures of the mustang and there paint jobs are on the medium to a little on the dark side. I have been looking the Vallejo Candy Blue, Spaz Stix candy blue, Alclad II Electric candy blue, or maybe Dupli-Color Perfect match Sonic Blue Pearl BFM0378. Here are some pictures that I'am using.

Hi guys, I'am building the 1/16 scale Keeling and Clayton 72 mustang funny car. I just finished making the interior tin and priming it. Can anyone tell me what color of paint to use . I can not find any pictures of the tin to find out. If anybody has as set of Slixx decals for the 1/25 car, the instruction sheet might tell what color to paint the tin. Thanks

George, You are right it is 1/16 scale
Chris Williams, I used some English Acrylic called U-POL. The numbers are UP 2881 Clear and up 2327 for the hardener. There is no thinner required. The mixing ratio is 4 parts clear to 1 part hardener. It drys very fast and hard. Its a dream to rub out and polish. Love it

I have been working on the 1/16 Mickey Thompson's blue Grand Am for a guy and Its ready for paint. The problem is that I'am having a bad time trying to get the right paint match from the on line pictures. So, can anyone out there know what would be the right paint. The blue is a solid color. No metallic etc. Thanks

Ian, Thanks for the kind words on my Mustang. I'am always looking for new ways that people do things, so I can try them and what I can do. Will you put this car in The IPMS Nationals next year?
