  1. Im working on an old amt kit, the mario andretti k mart lola.

    And i jsut got done stripping the chrome off and repainting them flat black(like they are on the box) but should i clear coat the rims?

    Thanks,Jeff

    Maybe go with a satin-finish clear coat...flat black might be too dull. Or use the flat black and smooth out the finish a bit with some very fine sandpaper or a cloth to kinda weather it as well.

  2. Well...mine was a 1983 Pontiac 1000 (basically a Chevette with more black trim). Light Blue metallic with no A/C and only an AM/FM radio. I painted the steel wheels black and had stainless steel trim rings.

    Though I was over 6 foot tall then, I sat fairly comfortably. I still didn't mind driving it for the 2 & a half years that I owned it...she served me well. Surprisingly good in snow too!
