Looks really nice.

Those wheels look good. Not too over the top modern looking.

Hmm, I'll have to find some of that stuff. The gold pin stripes are giving me a fit on this 25 year old AMT trans am kit I am working on.

That interior looks fantastic. Really pops against the white body. And the blue stripe compliments everything.

You apply the decal film to the sheet before soaking the decals? That would be very helpful with my older kits.

Very, very nice build. Love the upholstery. The flat and semi gloss trucks are really eye catching.

Finally got to hobby lobby to pick up a molotow pen. Here is the final result. To recap, the wheels were stripped of the chrome plating in whitewall cleaner. Then I sprayed them with Rustoleum 2x gold. The silver on the wheel face was done with a sharpie silver paint pen. Lugs and center caps were picked out with a molotow pen. Unfortunately the kit does not come with decals for the caps.

That turned out very nice. That grey is sharp and the red interior is just enough contrast.

Looking very good. That grey exterior looks awesome.

Oh, that is going to look great. Can't wait to see that finished.

Got the plug wires run to the boots. Need to let the glue dry well and my eyes to uncross. Then I will get them to lay down a little nicer.

Here is the pic.

I stripped the wheels with blech white whitewall cleaner. Then I sprayed them with gold Rustoleum paint. Used a silver sharpie oil paint marker to pick out the silver. Still have to do the lugnuts and center caps.

I like the stripes on the trunk. Looks more complete to my eyes.

Welcome, looking forward to seeing your work.

That truck is looking really sweet. I love that grey green color.

So, that's a monkey wrench, right?

I've worked with some really bad mechanics out there. Some real good ones too, but when there is money to be made easily, it seems like morals go out the window. One guy would get a car in for an alignment. He'd drive it down the road. If the steering wheel was centered and it didn't pull, he called it good. Never even drove it up on the alignment rack. Spend 2 minutes on a test drive and charge the customer an hour and half.

Welcome back, your detailing looks great.

Thanks. That ejection mark is bugging me now that I see it twice actual size. I may have to remedy that.

Very nice build. I remember watching a lot of those at airshows when I was a kid.

Very nice set of trucks. They look great alone and next to each other. The spare tire in the wrecker bed is a nice touch.

Now the interior matches the engine. I like the red better. The green was definitely a statement color. I love the exterior color.

I installed spark plug boots and the distributor for a 1978 Trans Am I am working on. First time ever adding wires to an engine. The heads have no detail, so I had to eyeball the spark locations based off 1:1 photos I found on the web.

Looks very nice.
