jumping in on the roadster madness! I wanted some cool 60's style Flake paint job, so I used some pearl ex powder mixed with black craft paint and ended up with this cool paint job, I'll have to get some outside pics because the flakes really sparkle like crazy! paint still needs to be polished out so dont mind and orange peel I left the pics big so you can at least see the flakes in some detail

You still need to polish stuff out after to remove as much of the black carbon left from the rust though.

Concerning the NHRA TV lineup
JTRACING replied to Nytrozilla's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I used to watch the drag racing all the time back in the day with dad, nowadays I never even know when its on tv. And if it is on its on in the middle of the week and during the day when I'm not home anyway. So pretty rare I even see anything. -
thanks guys, I guess the outlining is just my personal preference. i like the look it brings anyhow little update started to add some weathering and such
-
thanks! Found a cheap set on Amazon, not the best but good enough until I can afford better
-
Thanks, I used krylon burgundy, the primer/paint in one can, spray can.
-
