  8. Hello Everybody! Here's the red, Tamiya TS-49 Bright Red. The main colors for this build will be red, gold, chrome and uh... mummy colored. After I got a successful final coat of res, I was looking it over and thought that candy res over gold would have looked killer. Ah, well. ?‍♂️ Designed mainly to capture the feel of the original show car, this kit is obviously not too big on detail as evidenced here by the incomplete rear axle casting. Though it probably won't be readily visible on the finished model, I plan to address this shortcoming. After cutting the styrene tube to a proper length, I split it lengthwise and glued it over the top of the axle. This is a rather simple kit so it should be a pretty quick build, hopefully I didn't just jinx myself. As always, thanks for taking the time to look and please feel free to comment. David G.

  13. A good, clean, classic hotrod build. It's understated to the point that it's almost a sleeper, beautifully done. David G.
  14. Nice color combination, good interior and engine bay detail. I like how the gold on the engine block ties in with the interior colors. David G.

  17. Nicely done! David G.
  18. Expert level kit-bashing and fabricating skills! An amazing replica of a delightfully ostentatious vehicle. I'm curious, have you contacted the owners to share it with them? David G.
  19. Good progress, I'm interested to see how you work the windshield frame into this one. David G.
  20. That is beyond gorgeous! It could easily pass for 1:1. David G.
  21. Hello Everybody! With the clean up work done and some white primer in place, we're ready for some paint. In my research, I've seen this kit painted a number of colors. Even the box art shows up in several combinations of color. All of them look good for various reasons but the original show car was painted red, so that's what I'm using for mine. As always, thanks for taking the time to look and please feel free to post a comment. David G.
  22. It looks like you're adding a lot of interesting detail. Can't wait to see it all in place. David G.
  23. It would appear Bruce, that you've perfected the art of painting. That's an amazing finish. David G.

  25. Beautiful engine detail! The body is coming along nicely too. David G.
