Cool! (no pun intended.)

I agree but it also looks great with the chrome wheels and fits the time frame better.

Tom, I'm glad you found it, that model influenced a couple of my own builds. Now if only you would finish this guy, http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/66117-dodge-van-camper-trailer-minor-progress-3-8-15/

Really cool, I like it.

Well done and clean, I like it.

Cool, I like it.

Wow, this is really cool, the door panels are over the top. I'm going to steal that one from you one day!

Thats just about the coolest thing I've seen this week, even cooler than watching the Navy missle launch off the coast Saturday. I have a '40 convertable in my stash I plan on building like my dads first car and this will be a big help, thanks Harry.

Great looking car, where did the wheels come from?

Cool!

Very nice, well worth the effort.

Really nice job, glad you finished and showed us.

Looks good, great color choice.

Nice, looks really good.

I grew up in a body shop before the days of paint booths and learned to paint cold so I have better luck not warming the paint first. I usually spray a realitively heavy mist coat (still a light coat but I try to get near to full coverage). After about 3 or 4 minutes I give it another light coat, then if needed after another 5 minutes or so I give it a moderately heavy coat. Mostly I go by feel, when the overspray on my paint stand starts to flash off (when it starts getting tacky and stringy when I touch it rather than just wet), thats when I do the next coat. The longer the paint stays wet (without running) the smoother the finish will be as this alows the surface of the paint to flow. Just be aware that with laquer and enamal each coat will add solvents in effect reactivating the paint already applied. With enamals you have about a 20 minute window to apply the next coat and after that the following coat can cause the previous coat to check up or wrinkle. I am sure others have better results than me with different techniques but this is what works for me.

It seems with the rather large Australian participation on this forum some of the on-line stores would sell and ship to Australia. I would be willing to go down there to check out the scene and find a distributor for a small fee, airfare, and daily per-diem to cover the hotel, steak dinner, and a couple of Tooheys.

Nice, I like it.

Cool!

I like it.

Really nice, I like the color combo on the Hudson.

Nice, I like it.

Looks like a cool project.

Nice job on what looks like a problem kit.

Cool!

Looks like a good start, I'll be watching.
