Dragline

My foray into Pro Touring. Parts box low pros wheels and big brakes. Digital dash and a paint concept of my own rather limited design. Had to do something with this kit that was as different as I could make it.

Man is this rocking in the metallic grey or what? I went to see Kiss in I think about 04/05 on Boston for their reunion tour in my other guitarists Wayne's 86 SS Monte T tops leaked and I ended up getting him a Soff Seal kit for it. It's a whit car with some day 2 stuff on it. Great build bro. Takes me back.

Holy Schnickies how did I miss this build? Ring Bros vibe all the way on this one for certain. I am digging it from every angle. Is there an engine in this bad boy?

You brought your skills with you and they served you well. Really nice build.

Slick and well executed. Your eyeball engineering is spot on from where I'm sitting.

Glad you were able to finish it after all these years. Great job and well worth the wait.

Revell really crushed it right? I guess because it's a bit busy and they did engineer it right, the result tends to be detailed. But overall the kit has it in all the right places.

Over the top build of such an important car. I'd be proud to show that off any day.

What a savage little beast. Well done Sir!

Savage builds both. The 69 is killer.

That red is just perfect. You might think red interior blue exterior wouldn't be cool. It works. I have this kit and I may steal an idea or two. Very nice.

66 is my second favorite after 67/68. Nothing beats a white Mustang. Sweet build.

Great kit from Revell. For some reason Revell was really firing on all cylinders for quite a while. Putting stuff like this out shows what they are capable of when they really try. Nothing fancy here. Straight OOB. That OOB under hood has got to be one of the nicest I've ever seen. Just well engineered from every angle.

That was my goal brother. Glad I was able to provide a time machine.

3rd pic down near the mirror. You can see the section under the windscreen is white and not blue. I missed that. The decals broke I think. I'll mix up some enamel and touch it up.

I had one almost exactly the same. Same gold with tan and an exhaust manifold leak. I couldn't keep oil in it and eventually I got rid of it. I think it's a street rod now. Thanks for the memories.

That paint looks familiar. Metallic teal correct? It looks great. What brand please.

Yep... 16K. Not like that means much. At 8 it's already smooth.

Frankie is looking good. Love the old kits.

The Scaglietti paint is Duplicolor Perfect Match. An automotive lacquer for touch ups. It lays down nice, dries fast. But be wary of humidity. It is very sensitive to humidity and will blush easily. But clear coat makes it look great again once applied. Thanks

Elegoo Saturn 4

An older kit that still has that Tamiya stamp on it. The decals were a bit of a challenge as they were sort of rubbery. Tamiya decals get this way after a decade or two.

Convincing weathering and subtle touches. What a prize.

Great color scheme. That kit has rarely looked better.

I watched about an hours worth last night. No wonder people only lived so long. It was a tough gig that Borax run.
