Nice.

That looks great.

Striking build. Very nice.

Thank you Carl. Thank you Bob.

Thank you Eric, Ray and Antonio.

Ok. She’s done. Nice kit to build.

Nice. Can't wait to see it Tom.

When I was a kit I always wanted a Mercury Turnpike Cruiser. The one with the antenna pods one each end at the top of the windshield.

Thank you Tom. I buy those Duplicolor pants if I see them in estate sales.

No. The one I have is on the left of this picture. You can tell it’s old by the size.

Tom. The color is from a small Dupli Color can I bought at a garage sale years ago. So I don’t know. Lol. Just thought it was the right color. It does say gm382w on the bottom. The interior is going to be a MotoMaster Honda Sage Green but doesn’t look green at all. Again a can dated 1994-95.

Awesome Mario! Nice.

Wow. Nice stance and great colors.

In progress. Painted and sprayed Testor’s clear on it. So far so good. No paint screw ups. Lol

I was going in that direction. Thank you.

I love that year Edsel. Looks great Andrew..

I special ordered the paintfrom the auto parts store. It comes in a can. It was $25 and would have done more than 2 cars if I didn't repaint this one 4 times. LOL.

Great. It should be here any day now. ?

Thank you Mario and Tom. I looked that color up and ordered it from Reilly’s auto parts. But it doesn’t say what type of paint it is. Yes Mario. I wanted something to photograph the builds in the colder months. It’s not accurate in scale but fun none the less. Made out of Foam Core. ? Tom. At 67 I’m not going to stress myself out over something that will drive me crazy. It’s suppose to be fun though right?

I will say I find it isn’t great with enamel paints. Tends to craze after a while. I use it. Lacquers seems to be fine. But enamels no matter how old. Seems to always emit some sort of gas or something.

Very sharp looking.

Thank you Rusty. ?

My grandmother had a 1966 Delta 88 in this color. That's why I ordered it. It was a really nice looking car. Now everything is black, white or gray. Except for Chevy. They are putting some bright color schemes out there.

Thank you David. It is a color from that era. I special ordered it from the auto store. The other Cutlass I actually ordered it for.

After 3 purple pond trips I consider this done. I know there is a chrome trim line the runs along the top sides but my hand and eye site are not what they use to be. So I left it. I went with the mono color scheme. A few things about this kit. The tire opening is larger than the wheel backs and hub caps. I should have sanded the ridge on the back of the hubcap off. The stance of the wheels in the wheel wells look like the wheels are too far back. And the hump behind the back sit sits too high making the top cover look like it's floating. Other than that I liked it.
