Zippi

Haha....is spiffy the same as snazzy ☺

Thanks fellows.

Raining this morning so no spray painting. I did get the interior completed for now. May do a little more touch up. Not sure if i like the color on the console.

Thanks fellows. I'll have to dig into my spare parts and see just what wheels & tires I have and what will look good.

Yup....been there and done that. Have anymore pics? I just posted my 60 Chevy Pickup build in WIP.

Starting another kit while I'm still working on my 65 Impala. I love the trucks so on this one I wanted to try the Tamiya lacquer paint. I painted the body with Tamiya TS-10 French Blue, top with TS-26 Pure White, and cleared it with Tamiya TS-13 Clear. This is still early on so not sure where I'm headed with this one. I have an extra 56 Ford Foose truck kit I could rob some parts or I could just go box stock. To early to know for sure. Just thought I'd throw this out there.

Worked a little on the detailing for the firewall and dash. My Molotow Chrome pen crapped out on me so I had to stop. Wasn't planning on a trip to the hobby shop today.

My foil went on ok but it has that "wrinkled Hershey’s Kisses foil wrap look" like John said. I'll finish out the rest of the sheet but may go another route down the road. Just don't know yet.

Sweet looking little Model A.

That color combo makes a statement. Looks kewl.

David, this was my 1st time using bmf. While practicing I learnt quick that it only took the weight of my X-Acto knife (new blade) to cut through the bmf. I also learnt very quickly that I need to wait til the afternoon when all the caffeine is out of my system. I was shaking from the caffeine and I thought is was my nerves ☺

Thanks David. Maybe once you get the black paint on again try some white masking tape as a guide so you can see it better against the black.

Looks good Tom. You going to leave that patina look or lay down some paint?

That color looks great man.

Thanks fellows. Yeah....I did a couple test before I did my seats. The only thing it really wanted to stick to was an unpainted surface. it stuck pretty good to the acrylic though.

Engine and wheels are looking good.

Great build. I like the white and green. I'll be working on mine shortly.

Nice clean build. I have this kit and just painted the body in Tamiya lacquer this morning.

That's one tough looking Ranchero.

nice engine. Those colors should go together pretty well.

Take a tooth brush and scrub it down then put it back in the drink. I know what you mean about the bmf. I tried my hand at it today and I'd hate to have a long run like what your doing. Mine came out pretty good but it was not a long run like yours.

I like both Jeeps. Saw this one at a car show last weekend. Had a nice BB in the business end. It looked like a new build.

That red made it pop.

Ok....I tried the bmf this morning on my seats and I gotta say, you guys that apply this so nicely my hat's off to you. I guess I've had to much coffee this morning but it was a bear to trim and keep on the part. How does it look to you guys before I continue on? Do I need to peel it off and take another run at it???

Haha....didn't your momma tell you not to drink the water ?
