    The entire car pretty much looks like this... So I wet sanded with 3000 grit and lightly went after the roof. Then used Meguires Scratch X 2.0, follow up with Novus 2. Result... not quite happy, again with a wet 3000 then just Novus 2 this time. Sorry folks I know there are other products available but I went with what I had on hand. I can live with this

    Got some color over the weekend and a clear coat yesterday. I'm nervous about sanding thru the clear but it really needs it. Tons of orange peel
  3. Nice paint and finish. Great stance
  4. Pretty cool. I like the blue glass.
  5. Love that toothy grin. Very nice

  10. I noticed that side window and thought someone cut it in. Never knew that van kit existed

    Side tracked again. Playing around with some wire, styrene and stick pins. I drilled a small hole in the side of a carburetor and cut a small piece of styrene and added 3 holes. I used earbud wires for the return spring and throttle cable. I then attached the styrene to the carburetor with a stick pin and some CA then painted everything up. I'll use these on future builds. Maybe I'll add a mini R/C motor...
  13. Beautiful interior
  14. Love the pro touring look. I cant imagine pushing it thru the cones

    It's the return spring. It's a thin gold wire plucked from the mini earbuds. I coiled it around a straight pin. Pretty easy

    Yeah Jim, I plan to run a standard hot rod exhaust. I did something new this time around Can you spot it?
  18. Great build Rodney. I use the same clear but I get the spray can. You're totally right when you say tape will pull off the clear. Happened to me with BMF. The finish pulled right off when I readjusted the foil.
  19. Super clean. Nice color and finish
  20. What a neat little build! Wonderfully executed mashup of the old and new
  21. Super clean beautiful build! Outstanding finish on that great color
