I think that might make a few people here happy if you did I know I am not as, hmmm, wise as most people on here , but I too feel myself getting older, I think back to things, and it hits me how long ago I did something, or things along those lines, I still feel pretty young, well most days anyways

I already thought you were a cranky old man

I agree, that needs be common

I really love the color on the body, just beautiful

I stay up late, I dont really do any work tell after the other half comes home from work, thats when I get some peace to work lolDuct tape????????? I am sure that could work lol

Here is the body after the second coat of red Starting working on the chassis brakes roll cage

If you have an Air Brush, you can get Ford Candy Apple red from Scale Finishes , click the drop down menu for 1967 http://www.scalefinishes.com/mustang.html

Very nice

Some more info would be good, Tamiya correct, so I am guessing 1/24th scale, that is good

Raoul, you are right, I forgot that he does have single stage paint, I believe those are enamel based paint, I have not used those yet, glad you brought that up

Have a pic of it ?

Started work on the engine Here it is in clear , two wet coats

What shade of green did you use?, it looks like British racing green

This is becoming a pain, I replied to this thread soon after you posted it, and my reply is gone , you did a good job on this one, I like the wheel swap, I never built this one, only the AMT kit.

Luis, its funny, after I posted that, later that night I seen the FaceBook posting about the restocking, now I just need to make myself ok with the price lol

This should be interesting, I like the idea

Well, it helps that I am a stay at home dad for the time being lol , with out my models, I would of gone crazy by now, my daughter knows how to push my buttons already lol

Troy, yes, it is a bit late , I have already got the clear on, but I am still perfecting the polishing , so I burn through no matter what I do, I am getting better, if I skip the sanding part, and use a rubbing compound to smooth out the paint, for the most part, I dont burn through, but it never fails, when wet sanding, I will burn through somewhere . Gary, Scale Finishes paint is great, its very much worth the money, the paint comes pre thinned and ready to paint, the flow is good too, I have used Duplicolor , Testor lacquer clears, and I am using Mr Hobby clear for this one, the Scion FRS, the Merc SL65 AMG I used Mr Hobby clear. I shoot the paint between 25-30 PSI, I would have to double check what I have it set at The only troubles I have had, was mine own doing, I got little excited and put to much paint on at once , and it crazed the body, but , it was also an Aoshima body, and the plastic is very sensitive , I talked to Jameston about it, and we figured out it was my fault , but he was willing to help Body after the second semi wet coat

here is the body with the red part done, but I have since done a second coat of red, I did not get good coverage, have some bleed through, but the areas that have it are going to be black, so I am not worried, the only part that I might need to fix is the lower part of the rear wheel well, have some bleed through

This was after the first round of paint, I have already done one more coat , and clear is next

Me too , I just hope I dont mess this one up

Starting this one as well, I have not done a lot of none NASCAR builds, done a few of the Revell C5R /C6R kits, so doing this will be something new, I dont know why I have waited so long though , and keeping with my trend of doing cars from GT5 lol Here is the kit box and the body pre primer after primer and the silver part

That was great

Yeah, I knew it was, but I dont get why they did it
