I like that shade of blue on it.๐

Great looking paint and foil work Joe!๐๐

The color looks great on it Gary.๐ I tend to like full fendered rods over fenderless too.๐

Looking good๐ I buy the Tamiya primer in the square bottle, thin it with lacquer thinner and airbrush it. Itโs the same primer as the spray cans I believe. I keep a jar of it for my Paasche mixed so I donโt have to clean the cup each time.๐

Looks like too heavy of a coat in one pass. I havenโt used a spray bomb in a while, but when I did I would start spraying off the model, make a brisk pass over it and stop after Iโm past the model. Probably 6โ-8โ away and multiple light coats. -
Since you askedโฆ.I would not waste time trying to resurrect it. You could build half a dozen new kits in the time it would take to fix it. Throw it in the parts box or make a demolition derby car out of it. JMO.

Thanks Chris. I plan on painting it a mixture of metallic red and metallic black. The roof will be gloss black. I have mulled over the idea of ditching the LS and putting a 409 in it instead. Hmmmโฆ.๐ค- 141 replies

Thank you all Fellas! I am happy with the roof profile now.๐ The extension does make huge improvement in my mind. I think I will go with the hubcaps and white walls unless I can find a set of baby moons in the parts box. Iโd like a slightly wider set of tires for the rear, but unless I can splice two tires together or find a suitable pair that I could paint I will use the kit tires- 141 replies

Use 0.030โ for the handle part if you have it. It looks less clunky and a little more in scale than the 0.040โ.

Me, myself and I is the main concern of too many people these days.

The city wants to change the zoning laws so that they can grant a permit without any public input to build a 40 foot tall fourplexs in neighborhoods like mine. We are all single or split level homes on 50x100 foot lots. This all came about when the feds decided to hand out cash to cities to solve the housing crisis that they created. Edit: I donโt want to move because I am easy walking distance from a mall and there are lots of stores and restaurants nearby. But if my next door neighbours house got bought and torn down by a developer to build a 4plexโฆ๐คฌ
