Remarkably great shape for a car approaching 60 years old. Wise to install the new wheel cylinders, the inside of the OEM ones would have to be pitted too much to rely upon.

I would use the "heal - toe method" in that case.

Thankyou David. The seat inserts were an experiment that worked as I had hoped. The interior was painted with Tamiya Matt Black. I masked off the area that would be the cloth insert that Ford did. Theirs actually looks even better with additional color threads running through the cloth material. I sprayed the inserts lightly at arm's length using Testors Extreme Lacquer Pure Gold so the color would arrive at the seats fairly dry and that added a little more depth.

Thank you Jim. I do a light dusting coat of clear blue on the inside. I allow it to dry overnight and then dip the windows in a small container if Pledge floor polish. When I remove the glass from the Pledge I allow the excess to run off onto a paper towel. I'll even touch the bottom edge of the glass to sort of wick away any extra to try and prevent any runs in the finish. By morning it is fine to handle. I have been using Revell' Contacta clear glue for clear parts. You really don't need to use very much and any dried glue on the headliner can be touched up with a brush.

Got the glass tinted and installed. The chassis and interior are coming together as well.

OH man, there goes my model buying budget again.

Great looking Chris Craft. I like the different colored wood finishes just like they did.

Like the subject and the printing looks great.

That should be a great color combination.

Like the idea for your build. The chase scene set the standard for movie chase scenes in its day.

Any adhesive residue left on the body and paint from where the excess foil is removed?

Great looking paint and interior finishes. Like the engine and chassis detailing.

Great looking truck and snowplow. Looks showroom fresh. Alway fun to build a model of a vehicle that has been a part of your life.

Great paint job, just like the old gel-coat metal flake jobs of old. The driver's seating on this kit looks a little tight, but your interior looks good along with the exhaust and the rear skid plate.

The body portion looks well done.

I have never been able to get out of a ticket. I in fact have gotten tickets when I wasn't even speeding. One of the draw backs to having a Hugger Orange '69 Camaro at the time.

Great looking paint and decal trim combination. Like the factory rally wheels.

Man, this has been a great journey watching your build. Your Barn Find looks beyond saving, just as it should.

Dor you think you could have pulled that one? I'll bet your pretty wife would be the only one to pull off that ruse

Like the red inner fender liners. Olds only option, wonder if they would fir a Chevelle? I know they would in or scale world here.

Great engine idea. Always wondered why more haven't thought to use the Pontiac OHC six.

Great looking pickup and like the unusual long bed Step-side.

Beautiful looking paint color and finish. Like the engine and chassis detailing.

Like the dark sinister looking color and finish.

Beautiful looking color and finish with the stripes. The Cragars always look right on Mopar's.
