Thanks. The color I used was Dupli-Color Santa Fe Tan which is sort of a cream colored tan. The car was originally painted Dupli-Color Sweet Cream over black, which is actually closer to the FHP scheme. Tbill did the painting & polishing on this one for me (twice, I think). From Wikipedia: "The paint scheme of black and tan (cream) has no correlation with the road color or the grass color. The traditional paint scheme is unique to the FHP and has been the color of the cars as long as the FHP has utilized patrol vehicles. The paint adds $657 to the purchase of each vehicle. Prior to sale, the patrol defaces the cars so that they cannot be misconstrued as official law enforcement vehicles. The defaced, two-tone paint deflates each car's resale value by approximately $400. It is a misdemeanor crime in Florida to operate a car in the colors of the FHP."

So, I managed to get some more work dome on the Charger Build From Hell. My decal issue was resolved (thanks to tbill & GLMFAA1), and this is where the build stood on 26 FEB 16: And here is where we are now: The front & rear bumpers are just placed on for the photos, and are not secured yet. Despite some setbacks, the build is starting to come together. The latest setback is the rear view mirror shot across the room, and I cannot find it. No idea where it might be. I minor setback, but I'm sure something will pan out (or I'll find the part). So, onward with the build!

Looking nice so far. Weren't the M1008 a 24V system like the rest of the US Army vehicles? Been a while since I drove a CUCV.

Fantastic looking weathering.

Coming along nicely. I like it.

Nice looking International. Well done.

Rumor Control has it coming out in June 2017: http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/120065-amt-movin-on-kenworth-announced/

Very nice job on the Transtar. Well done.

Very nice looking Spitfire. Well done. Which version is this one?

Fantastic work, Pavel. Your attention to detail & weathering are outstanding. I can just about see this truck working on Long Island.

That didn't take long.

Wow! That's a lot of detail! Fantastic work so far.

Nice looking DAF. Very will done.

Very nicely done, KJ. I really like it.

Nice looking Harley. Very well done. I'd be a little wary riding it with all of those loose hoses, though.

So you know, Optimus Prime is a 379, not a 359. Either way your conversion will look pretty cool when it's all said & done. I'm not sure about the headache rack, but you should be able to get the drop visor & lights from Mo'luminum as well ( http://moluminum.com/ ) Here's the site for Double Take Replicas: http://kdhumphr.wixsite.com/double-take-replicas Good luck with your conversion.

Oh, Blade Runner. I liked that movie. I hope the sequel is good.

A lot of work went into that one. Well done.

That looks really nice. I like it all, and the cow is a nice touch.

I think SWMBO might kill me if something like that "followed me home". A motorcycle, maybe; but not that! Nice find, though.

I'm really liking this Dodge.

Thanks, Tom. Right now I have two major hurdles to over come: the hood & the engine mount to the frame. If I can get past them it "should" be smooth AMT sailing!

That's pretty cool. I'm not sure what it is, but it's cool!

Nice job on the Harley. Well done.

Excellent job, Vesa. It looks so realistic. I don't know if this is the right place or not, either; but maybe you should post it here: http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/forum/53-under-glass-big-rigs/
