Hey, Shawn! You could get some foil and kinda mismatch that along the sides, like maybe only foil where the body is blue....... Like on some of the panels, the chrome might have been painted over!

Alternative rocker covers for Hemi engine?
JollySipper replied to JollySipper's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
The engine is meant to represent a late '60s street engine, so I guess I would need to paint them black.......... Thanks, guys..... -
Hey, fellas....... I'm building the optional engine and stand from the '68 Charger kit........ I'm not sure how I want the valve covers finished. They come chromed, or I could paint them black, but I was looking for other options..... Did the Hemi ever come with valve covers in something besides the choices I have? Maybe gold anodized or something? Bare aluminum? Thanks, guys..........

That's real cool........... Thanks, Guys!
-
Thanks, Gentlemen! I never mentioned, but the decals are from the latest release of the Lindberg '37 convertible custom thingy...........
-
Yep! Those are the ones............ Thanks!
-
Thanks, fellas! I put a little extra effort into this one....

Not 100% complete (tail lights and front bumperettes still needed) but I caught the weather just right to take some outside shots..... There is a build thread for those interested....... I want to thank Bill, Paul, and Carl for helping with this one....... Please feel free to comment, Thanks!

My most reliable car was a little Mazda GLC hatch-back......... (Great Little Car, it was!) It had a total of 250K miles on it when I finally retired it. All I ever had to do to it was a CV axle change..... The most fun vehicle was my old truck, a '71 Dodge SWB Sweptline... It would be a Rat Rod by today's standards. Never had nice paint, but the built 318 with Rochester carb, headers, and 3.91 gears made it a blast to drive.....

What would YOU like to see as a model
JollySipper replied to JeroenM3's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I've suggested this before, but Moebius could easily make a '63 Plymouth max wedge car using the Belvedere I as a starting point...... It has the correct exhaust and everything.... I know that they could do it right! All the under-hood decals, all the details to make it correct. I've always Loved the looks of this car.......... -
I really like it! The pearl look works for it...............

Wanted to show you guys what this is gonna look like in it's final assembly........ Still have some small parts to add, door handles, etc.... I think the color combo looks pretty good, it's hard to get a good pic, tho....... Thanks to you that have watched this one, I guess the next post of this build will be "under glass".........

Hey, friend........ Did you find a stock front suspension yet? I have the one from the Monogram '37 I could send you if you need it........
-
Thank you, Jeff........ It's a GM color from DupliColor, it's just called "Dark Blue Metallic"...... It's over black primer which gives it a nice rich finish!
-
So I got to do my favorite part of building today, the paint! Had to go with my second color choice, which I think will look pretty good with the red interior....... I have some wax/polish that's made by Formula1 (it's in a big yellow bottle) that I may go over it with once it's fully cured feel free to comment, and thank you for checking it out!
