Looking for a source for pin striping tape (not masking tape) for an upcoming project. Previously I have used Line-O-Tape which came in various widths and colors but doesn't seem to be available any longer. Any help would be appreciated and thanks in advance.

Michael, I mostly have picked up this kit along with its sister Corvette version for the Monocoque Wheels and some other pieces to use on other builds. On more than one occasion I've wondered what it would take to turn either version into a decent looking build of some kind. Well, I now know! You're taking on all of the shortcomings of this kit and are headed to first class results.
Keep up the good work, Glen
Michael, I only use a Sharpie if I'm doing a black colored belt. On any other color I'll use Testors enamel or Tamiya acrylic as some of the PE pieces also get painted and then they're sure to match. I use Tamiya acrylic for the gloss and flat clears and they work fine.

Michael, the only CA glue I used was for the release button to the buckle. For the belts it was Aleene's Turbo Tacky Glue which is a craft store white glue. I also use it when mocking up parts in the early stages of a build.
BTW I think you are doing an awesome job on your pro street Beretta.
Glen
Michael, thanks for the acknowledgement. The harness is from Pro Tech model parts I feel it's the easiest to assemble and the results seem pretty good. Yes those are decals for one of the Slixx decal sheets. A little gloss clear where they are going, followed by a fair amount of setting solution and when dry finish up with flat clear.
Thanks again, Glen
John, my personal knowledge of early SS cars is limited at best, nevertheless you've presented a really nice, neat and clean build here. Great work!
Glen
Alan, really nice to hear from you and hope all is well with you. Glad to hear you liked the build and thanks for the kudos. Our mutual friend Mr. Estabrook keeps me grounded as you can imagine. Upon seeing it he wasted no time telling me he wasn't wild about the color and he's not a fan of contingency decals, but other than that it was fine. But that's what friends are for right LMAO!!
Thanks and take care, Glen
To: Larry, Bill, Trevor, Carl, Dave, Mike, and Dave, I can't thank you guys enough for taking the time to send your nice comments on my build and it's appreciated for sure.
Thanks, Glen
