  1. nice work
  2. this is another kit designed by andrey bezrodny and that i printed and painted i am not sure what happened to cause the gap between the top and the grill and the body might have happened while in the uv light box i use to cure parts in till i started to stick them in direct sun light cause i do not think i had enough uv lights in the curing box and they were a lot gaps between lights so it did cure thing unevenly and i am not sure but the body protrusion might have got deformed i do know there is some other weird flared out warps on the bottom sides of the body in front and back corners of the rocker panels and the back bumper/tail light panel did not want to fit cause i think it bowed a bit i ended up having to cut away most of the tail light backing and break the the part in half then was able to get it to fit rights i painted the body a base coat of rust oleum 2x gloss apple red and a top coat of rust oleum color shift iridescent shimmer the roof is the rust oleum 2x flat grey primer i primed the body with i just masked it off before i painted the body i painted the interior rust oleum 2x flat grey primer also i painted the tires and chassis rust oleum 2x flat black primer i painted the rims rust oleum wheel high performance 3x metallic graphite i painted the bumpers and head lights rust oleum bright coat aluminum i painted the tail lights rust-oleum 2x gloss colonial red i brush painted the body and interior trim and the outer rim edges folk art metallic sterling silver acrylic paint using a dead ultra fine tip sharpie i brush painted the gauges apple barrel gloss white and did the gauge needles with a red ultra fine tip sharpie 1969 Pontiac Grand Prix .mp4

  3. thank you and so true
  4. the point i was getting at is that your version of ford, chrysler and gm aka holden saw the potential in offering the performance packages on pretty much every version of their car lines ford put the gt 351 performance package in the coupes and utes and sedans same with holden they offered the gts performance package on the coupes the sedans and the utes and chrysler offererd the pacer and later hemi 6 pack performance on the coupes the sedans and the utes but ford,chrysler and gm north america really only offered the performace packages on just the coupes with the exception of the ranchero and the el camino from ford and gm they did not offer the performance package on the the sedans which realy would have also sold well it took till the charger came back in 05 and later when the challenger came back in 08 for the performance packages to be offered on trucks and suvs and jeeps and then gm followed with chevy trucks getting a performace package and then ford did the same with their trucks and some chevy and ford suvs got a performace package to keep up with chrysler putting them in thier suv and jeeps and now the current generation of charger comes in both a sedan and a coupe version and ford has a standard style sedan mustang planed to pair with thier coupe version and it sounds like the camaro myay be getting a couple body type options a suv crossover a sedan and most likely a coupe so in a way they are now mirroring what ford/chrysler holden australia did back in the 60's through 70's offereing more then one body style for their flagship cars and also offering the performance packages for all of them also but i still think dodge and plymouth would have made a lot more money offing the performace rt and super bee packages on the dodge coronet sedans as well and same goes for the road runner and gtx performance packages also being offered on the plymouth satellite sedans and chevy could have offered the performance pacgages on thier chevelle/malibu sedans
  5. thank you
