I'm loving the look of that! Later-

Got this all cleared today. I will let it gas out all weekend and see about foiling on Monday and another quick coat of clear. I took pics today but they don't look much different than the last photos. Later-

I've been working on 4 different kits myself. Trying to avoid the tedious parts. Later-

I got some paint on the body of my Nova Sedan. Now to spray a couple coats of clear green. Later-

Lol! That really made me LOL! Thanks everyone. Glad to have this weird little thing. Later-

Thanks. Kind of what I thought about it too. Later-

Cool! Later-

I got this off of eBay as a rebuilder. It needed a good cleaning and some repairs. The OB had done a nice job on shortening the body. I started with changing the windshield frame from the 59 Impala part the OB used to a stock Judge windshield frame. Painted it with Testors Hugger Orange an cut some stripes down to fit the shortened body. Then came the rebuilding and that's when the problems started. Had to glue the hood down due to the firewall hitting the hood in the rear and the front of the hood not wanting to sit flat. I managed to muddle through and it will look decent on the shelf. This is my 4th build for the year. Later-

I finished this PITA today. Glad to have resurrected it but even more glad that it's off of my bench! It fought me at the last. Moved to Under Glass. Later-

The Monterey is a different vehicle model. It is a bit bigger car. Here is a 61 Monterey. Compared to the 63 Meteor you can see the size difference. Later-

John, Here is the kit that I started with. Later-

Nice info Mike. Thanks. Thanks for the nice words. Later-

Tom Geiger is correct. It is an original AMT 63 Meteor kit. Glad you're enjoying the build. Later-

Had to see what it looks like at this point. Later-

Thanks guys! Now if I can just keep from screwing it up. Later-

Yes I am. Thanks Jim! I think you'll like the paint job now. Got clear orange sprayed and then a couple wet coats of Wet Look Clear. Later-

Got decals on my chopper and got some paint on my Nova Sedan. Both will be cleared with a color coat later. Later-

Thanks Sam. I got the decals on today. Tomorrow I will experiment on some scrap to see how the clear orange topcoat will look. Later-

Thanks JC! Later-

Got the paint started on one of the Revell Choppers. Got a bit to go on the paint work. Later-

Thanks guys! Later-

This morning I began the paint work. Started with a base coat of Model Master Plymouth Bright Platinum and covered that with Tamiya Mica Red. The plan is to shoot some clear over that, add decals and then a final coat of Tamiya clear Orange or clear Yellow. Later-

Here is another custom chopper that I got as a started project. The OB did some nice custom work and I am excited to move forward on it. The OB added some nice turned aluminum pieces. Going to have to turn a second fuel tank cap since I could only find one. Later-

So, obviously I have not updated this in a while. AL (Thatz4u) asked about this one this morning and I had to dig to find the link. I have been working on it between other builds. I'm at the BMF stage on the body but still have the interior and chassis to do. Slow progress. This one took a bit of a turn with the colors but the build will be a hot rod style. Later-
