Saw another Tesla about 10 minutes or so ago and just had a Fiskar Karma behind me just now, and once again, I'm not even home from work again!

They also make a thinner Plasti-Dip that can be used for painting a variety of things, including cars, but I've yet to work with it myself. I did see a couple pretty horrific picture of what was probably a white Chrysler 200 rental car that had been "dipped" with flourescent snot green for a promotional series of pics to advertise a regional "Dipping" company. Now a couple friends also recently "Dipped" the white RX-8 beloning to one of their sister's in the same flourescent snot green..........it didn't really look any better in person than it did on my phone.

If it's a contractor, the guy mowing might getting minimum wage if he's a resident of some sort, probably less with the "ask for more and I call ICE" threat hanging over his head.

The rear does now that you mention it, not sure on the front.

Any of the Snap Fast kits would work good here too, if they were still being sold.........even the Slammers!

I have to agree with the modern snapper suggestion, plus many of them are of newer cars as well as of vintage cars, so they have more options that might be suited to their preferences.

Give it time, your immune system should be working at peak efficiency before too long

Then I saw '73 Z-28 and a late model ZL-1 Convertable since I made the last post.

Hmmmm, a silver '56 Austin-Healy, driven by a customer, a red '72 Skylark 2dr Post with fairly loud exhaust, Yellow and black '71-'73 Mustang, a stock and possibly original white '58 or '59 Vette, a red Tesla sedan, and a black CTS-V Sedan, had a mild drop and also with fairly loud exhaust. And I'm not even home from work yet!

Had somebody in a Hyundai cut myself and the minivan next to me off on a 3 lane stretch of road then slow down to a near stop to pull into a parking lot..........granted, there was a Portillo's on that property, but still.........

I forgot, Revell did versions of their snap PT Cruiser and Expedition in a neonish green!

Wasn't the Predecorated '57 300C also painted green, but a very dark green instead?

That's what I thought too, Dad even thought it would be great for motorcycles, makez them way easier to see at night!

AMT's original issue "Snapfast" early 90's Chevy extended cab/long bed full size pickup (unassembled promo) was molded in a color similar to the GM Emerald Green Model Masters sells in their lacquer like.

Ah, ok Danno!

What about the antenna?

Actually Brett, it's labeled as a MPC kit.

Their newest tooling should be the C6 Vettes, then the late model Camaro and Challenger, not the newest, but newer than the typical PL/AMT/MPC reissues that may have been recent pre Racing Chumps tools or kits from when AMT and MPC competed against each other as stand alone companies.......when Revell and Monogram were also stand alone companies..............

I think that's it, it's people in my age group that watched this as children, teens, and young adults, and now that many are now parents, they're probably watching the show with their kids and well, as was said, a big,loud, orange car flying through the air........what kid isn't going to love that, especially if they already watch stuff like Monster Jam?!

You don't have to, I only do if I'm using the Mopar paint (probably not needed, but just in case), Duplicolor (needed, as is the adheasion promoter), as well as if I'll applying the Model Master to the outside of the bodies and I usually use the finer grit 3m paper or sanding stick like I did on my last couple bodies. Never used the Tamiya paints (too new in my store and with pricing that ranges from "kinda expensive" to "OK, who's been sniffing the product?!"), and the Duratrax line is too new, but might be close enough to the old Pactra line to work just as well, and is sold in the bigger cans than Pactra and Tamiya use....and I think they're the same can as who ever makes the Mopar stuff uses!

Something else too, if you can get some Duplicolor bedliner in thr spray can, that makes a good, durable protective coating on the paint and with the use of their adheasion promoter, can be used on the outside of Lexan bodies too. No matter what.you do, alway clean the bodys before painting. I'll wipe them down with alcohal, mask them, wipe them down again when done with the masking, then if I don't get the immediate chance to paint, wipe it down before spraying. If you have to do any sanding, wipe it down after the sanding is done too.

Went to renew my driver's license today, found a spot right by their front door, walked right up to the counter and was taken care of right away, redid my eye test and my sight improved enough to no longer need to have the eye glasses restriction on my license, and was in and out in less time than it took me to drive there and park!
