Fantastic weathering! Everything is spot-on. David G.

Nice custom work and paint. David G.

I always enjoy looking at your builds Túlio, especially your paintwork which always looks flawless. David G.

YES! David G.

Thanks for all the kind comments. Most of the heavy lifting is done on this one, I'm just working on the little fiddly bits. Here's a test fit of the major body structures to check the need for any final adjustments before starting the finish work. As always, thanks for taking the time to look and please feel free to comment. David G.

I usually paint the gauges silver then use a black wash to bring out the raised details. Here's a little more detailed description of the method I usually use in one of my other posts: http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/114936-revell-1960-chevy-september-21-update/?page=1 David G.

Excellent work! David G.

Nice looking Plymouth. Did you use foil on the trim or paint it? I built one earlier this year, it's a nice kit. David G.

I've chosen the colors Tamiya Chrome Yellow and Racing White. After two weekends of masking and painting, here is the result. As always, thanks for taking the time to look and please feel free to comment. David G.

Beautifully done, it's the best example of one of these that I've seen built. David G.

Spectacular work! David G.

Excellent color choice! Looks great. David G.

I hereby proclaim the chassis done! There is some interference between the frame cross member and the transmission pan that doesn't allow the engine to sit as low as I believe it should. So far, this kit builds up nicely As always, thanks for taking the time to look and please feel free to comment. David G.

Excellent work! Love the dash detail. David G.

Nice clean build, looks great! David G.

Thank you Cliff.

That's a nice clean custom! Also one of my favorite kits. David G.

Thanks Sam. Someday, I'd like to see one in person- or maybe even drive one. David G.

Thank you David. I thought about painting it black but all the images I found online showed it in the same blue as the rest of the block. David G.

Here's a little bit of an update. One thing Moebius didn't provide in this kit was an alternator bracket. Since I don't like "floating alternators", I decided to make one myself. I fashioned this from a scrap of styrene. I made the slot using a panel line scribe and file. To secure the bracket on the alternator end, I drilled a hole in the alternator to accommodate a "bolt" to hold them together. Here's the bracket installed. It's glued to the block with a spacer in between to properly align it with the alternator and held in place on the alternator with a wire "bolt" which will be trimmed and painted later. As always, thanks for taking the time to look and feel free to comment. David G.

Thank you Dennis. David G.

Thank you G! I think this is one of my best paint jobs yet. Thanks Danno David G.

I love those old Hornets, yours looks great! David G.

Beautifully done Túlio. The extra add-ons aren't even missed. David G.

Thanks Bo, I'm glad you like it. David G.
