bluestringer

Thanks Bob. Yea, I've got 2 acres with 7 pecan trees, 4 pine, and a giant oak. We had some high winds with some storms that moved through and I had limbs and debris to clean up. Grass and weeds have started growing, and I need to mow.

Thanks Mike.

Been busy the last few days cleaning up my property getting it ready for mowing season, and getting my vegetable garden planted. But got to the bench a little while this morning. Going with flat black on the hood and bumpers. Also on the chassis components. Haven't decided on the interior yet, but may go black with it also. Still need to get another Chevelle donor kit.

Thanks. Yes I like the Createx paints, they do spray well and don't require much thinning.

Sweet. That red really pops.

Shot some Revive It floor polish on it. I may put on another coat.

Thanks Bob. I'm missing some parts from the donor chevelle kit. I'm going to check HL next week during the 40% off week, hope they have one.

Looks great in the photos Bob, can't see any orange peel. Has a great shine. Beautiful red.

Thanks.

Very nice work on the seats and panels. Looks great.

Outstanding work.

Looking good. I like what you did to get the radiator to fit without hitting. What color you going with?

My HL didn't have the Autoborne sealers, I got them from embellishFX.com, they are located in Florida and have fast shipping to me here in South Georgia. I also use the Createx 4011 thinner from HL.

Thanks. I get mine at Hobby Lobby. I was using mostly craft acrylics and decided to try the Createx. I still use some craft paints also, and the small bottles of Testor's enamels for small parts.

That pearl gold looks nice. Does the Autoborne black need much thinning. I've found the white needs very little, only 2 or 3 drops of 4011 shooting with a Iwata Neo with .35 needle.

Thanks Bob. Thanks Mike. This green is funky, it looks dark and light in different places according to the way the light hits it. It's also has a kind of luminous quality to it. I like it. I primed with some Createx Autoborne White Sealer.

Looking good Bob. I'm starting my build so I'll be following yours closely, letting you lead the way. : ) I will need to get another Chevelle donor kit as I have already used some of the parts I'll need for the 55 on my pro street pickup I did. I hope HL has another one when I go back for the 40% off week.

Starting my 55 pro street build..............color is Wicked Colors Phat Halo Green.

Thanks Carl. Thank you. Thank you.

Thank you.

Looks great. Nice work.

Very nice Mike. Love that green.

Man that looks great. Love the color.

Thanks Bob. Thank you Greg. Thanks. Thanks.

Had fun with this one. It's no where near perfect, but I think it turned out ok. Nice kit, no major problems, just my usual bumbling mistakes. Tried to do a little more engine bay detailing than I usually do. Paint is Wicked Colors Opaque Daylight Blue, interior is Folkart Titanium white with the Wicked blue. All comments welcome. Thanks for looking.
