  6. A real "stickler" aren't ya! Steve
  7. I'm betting that the '59 Bonneville never came in this color combo, but I like it! The gray paint can look a little like primer if the light doesn't hit it right. I had a little trouble spraying this gray. Couldn't seem to get it to spray wet enough, so it's a little rough in texture, but it'll be fine after clear & polish. I'm wondering if the paint sprayed so dry because of the high volume of metal flake in it. Lots of "metallic" in this one! Steve
  8. I beat him by 2 minutes!! My point! Steve

  10. Nice work Bill! I really wish Mobius would take the next step on the '55-'56 300 kits & give us a New Yorker, maybe a convertible. Or better yet a '56 Desoto would be fantastic! Steve
  11. Aha Harry! You are still awake! & as sharp as ever! Steve

  16. Yes David. With these old annuals the chrome parts are usually in rough shape so I almost always have them re-chromed. Even if the chrome is pretty good, a lot of times I just want to get rid of the mold lines. The last time I sent parts off, I got parts for 8 kits re-chromed for about $50.00. Well worth it to me! Steve
  17. I've seen it on Amazon. I've also heard a professional painter on this forum say it's some very nasty stuff!! That's all I needed to hear. I was considering trying it also, but shyed away. Steve
  18. Isn't that what coral is? This is the same color I used on my '59 Dodge. The darker of the 2 colors is the "Coral". The lighter color is called "Rose Quartz" Now that's pink!! Steve
  19. That's a very good price Bill! Steve
  20. Got a start on the paint on this one today. Started with the coral color which will adorn the top, wheels & the panel between the tail lights. That is the toughest part of painting this model! I always get so nervous about masking chromed parts for painting. Even a little bit of "bleed under" & your part is ruined! Not to mention the risk of the tape pulling up chrome & that sort of thing. But the trusty BMF & Tamiya tape came through again! I wouldn't even attempt something like this anymore without these types of products! Anyway, I'm happy with the results. Now it's on tho the gray body color. Steve
  21. Thanks everyone! I personally have never been a huge fan of dog dish caps either. This was just one of those circumstances where the stars were aligned right and it popped into my head & I thought.......why not? Steve
  22. I would think if your model gets hot enough to melt the embossing powder.........Well, lets just say you may have other problems as well. Steve
  23. Another car song......Sort of. "When I hit the road I was really Wheelin', had gravel flyin' & rubber squeelin', and I didn't slow down 'til I was almost to Arkansas." Steve
