Clk Sportswear Mercedes Clk Gtr Chassis

[935k3]

I have been working on the CLK Sportswear CLK GTR. The chassis is done and the body is almost ready for decals. I hate silver paint had to repaint the rear deck a few(allot) of times. Body is painted TS-17 Gloss Aluminum with TS-13 Clear.

Just awesome. How the heck do you do such fine detaling?

Very nice detail work, Dale!

Looks excellent!

I have one of the clear body versions of this kit, but haven't started it yet (I would be happy to trade it for an opaque-body version).

What problems did you have in applying the Tamiya paint? Did you prime 1st?

I hate painting gloss-type silver too! I have a couple of Porsche 904s which have frustrated me to the point of setting them aside for quite a while. Flat silvers seem to go on beautifully though.

Great start. I like these Tamiya kits.

Hi,

Why don't you buy the standard CLK GT1, Kit no. 24195(I think!) and use the body shell from that. It is the same one.
