some progress and better pics.

too late

what are you trying to power?

Thanks Virgil! I'm doing another beater next.

Thanks David!

try a light polishing compound then wax

DOT 3 brake fluid, castrol super clean/purple power from the dollar store, simple green, yellow can oven cleaner. all require an amount of soaking time and elbow grease. what kind of paint? How was it applied? (brushed,sprayed,dipped) any bodywork/filler? did you use a primer? if so what kind/type? with the answers to these Questions we can better give you the best method.

Thanks Guys! I'm trying to build a photo box for some better pictures, the lighting in my basement isn't very good for taking bright pictures.

My original thread disappeared, so i had to start another. been painting again. ghost skulls in the tear-away

i went to the local grow shop and bought the thick white mylar sheet (comes in a roll) and lined mine.

I still need to hit the tires and chassis with some dullcote though.

usa1 frame and axles, monogram bronco and an f150 cab section.

We all agreed to do what we could in a one month time limit. BEFORE this project started. <<<<THE WHOLE POINT

I'd like to know more about the slot drag strip.

Looks like the beginnings of a nice portable paint booth to me

Very Well Done

Very Cool, Romell

Hobby Lobby has them in the bead/jewelry making isle for 9 bucks

Great work, I cant wait to see more of this one.

use elmers white glue for anything glass/chrome. Go and get yourself a Tack rag from you local paint shop/store, some auto parts stores carry them too. I know Napa has them. wash your body before painting, once it is completely dry and masked wipe the area you are painting with the tack rag and spray away.

They did a Hemi and a Small Block Chevy.
