Looking good there Phillip.

I bought this kit 1 or 2 years ago off fleabay. After buying the kit I ordered a set of 22" "Essence" Wheels with 1" While Walls from Jay's. Still undecided on these wheels & tires or the stock white walls. I've been looking at colors and my eye keeps coming back to the Tamiya TS-64 Dark Mica Blue Lacquer paint. If you have built this kit tell me what you thought of the Quality and any issues.

Well, it's been 24 hrs so I started taking a close look at the clear coat that I did yesterday and it's leveled out really nice. I knew I had issues with the hood but another coat of the clear late yesterday did the trick. Now I'm seeing a new issue with the hood. I know yesterday there was a hint of the slot on the hood where the emblem goes but this morning it looks much worse. Not sure what I'm going to do with this.

Thanks David. A lot of fellows seem to think it's a copper color but it's actually Tamiya Metallic Orange over Silver Leaf then cleared.

The "Fuel Cuda" drag car turned out really nice. I'll bet that was a hand full at the track.

The black and green really go together nicely. The interior looks Super nice and the CF looks Awesome. -
Nice looking builds. I'm diggin the 33.

What a good looking 32. Love the color, stance, and the wheels & tires. Nice build.

I had a chance this morning to get the 57 to the spray booth and shoot the 2K clear on before I headed out to cut the grass. Temperature was 63° with 37% humidity. It came out really nice so I'm a happy camper.

Nice looking 68 Ford Dennis. I'm liking the color. My kind of pickup. -
If I was a cop back in the day that's the cop car I'd want to drive. Nicely done man.

I'm diggin the stance Nick. A deep Maroon would look nice.

Thanks Kyle. The Spash Paints 2K clear hasn't failed me yet. ? Thanks man. I appreciate the info.

Wowser....came out Super nice there Buddy. The hood scoop is a nice touch and I'm diggin the wheels & tires from the Iceman.
-
I appreciate it man. Thanks. I do appreciate it.

This morning the temperature in the garage was 67° and the humidity was a 34% so I got after it. I laid down 3 coats of the Tamiya TS-92 Metallic Orange over the TS-30 Silver Leaf and I got the candy effect I was going for. I think it looks pretty close to the cartoon pic I was trying to mimic. I'll let this cure out then I'll airbrush the Splash Paints 2K Urethane clear over the Metallic Orange.
-
Thanks Bil. I hear ya man. That sbc does build up pretty nice.
-
Really nice build of the 60 Daytona Pro Mod. Lot of nice detail work. Nicely done.

Great looking project you got going on there John. -
Looking pretty good there Paul.

Yeah, been there, done that, and still doing it STU. The best paint stripper I've found that works the best for me is Easy Off.
