The pedals and mat were molded in. There wasn't any pads or anything.

Thanks Ya, i went kinda fast because i had a deadline for the fair. The next one will be much slower.

Well i haven't been on here in a while. After i came back from came had about a week to finish the two projects i was taking tot he 4-H fair. I finished them the day before the fair but im going to go back and find all of the pics I took of them and go through the story for all of you. I have a few pics here but i have to go find the others on another computer. It seems for this model i only have interior pics on this computer. Ill go find the others later today. Ill go find more pics later today. I know its a little sloppy but its my first try at small detail like that. Mike

I have a few pics here but i have to go find the others on another computer. So here is how i left it for a while. Here are some pics of the supplies i used for the rusting process. I also used this Ok so first i sanded the rough bumpy places down until almost smooth and just lightly sanded the whole body. Then i took a lighter and heated and dented any place i wanted a dent. I also took me dremel and cut away rust holes and anywhere that i didnt want plastic to be. I then took the brown and put a heavy coat on. I then sprinkled table salt on it. After that dried, i put a coat of yellow on it. When the yellow dries, i took the iron solution paint and painted anywhere that i wanted rust to form. When i got it how i liked it i covered the iron paint with rubber cement. Heres how it looked then Thats all the pics i have now but will go find the others later today. Mike

And my Avatar is my dads 1970 Tempest T-37. All original but he recently sold it. Im really mad at him for selling it. They were talking about it being mine but they sold it first.

Nice work! Its lookin real good!

What kit did you use?

I dont have any but i have been wanting to take a 70 GTO and make it into a 70 Le Mans.

Well i'm going to go work a scout camp for about 6 weeks and wont be able to work on any projects. Be back in July! Mike

Im sorry but im fairly new to models and i was wondering what this putty/clay stuff you have here? Thanks, Mike

This is really cool!! Keep up the great work!!

Here is a link to the video i did.

Thanks ill try that!

So here's the story. I got this model from my dad and i loved it because i didn't have a 67 at the time. So i open it up and there is a 1970 GTO front end! :wacko: There were also some other parts to different car as well. So i tried to build it as best as possible. I built the engine and painted the body. The body it TERRIBLE! I first painted it a color that i cant remember then i painted it black. Didn't like it. So i then panted it red but again, didn't like it but instead of waiting for the WHOLE car to dry i went ahead and started to sand it again! LOL. The paint wasn't dry so it didn't sand so it looked looked a mess. So now i am going to try my hand at rusting it. :lol: Lets see how this goes. Will post pics later.
