Trying to finish up the '56 Chrysler 300b, just waiting on the replacement front windshield that I broke.  Battery, radiator hoses, antenna and a couple of things and its complete.

Finally finished this one up... 

I broke the front windshield, ordered a new one and somehow that one got broken as well, so I ended up making due with a split window.  Maybe I can run across one if the future, so I left the body/frame unglued, just in case.

Hey there Tim Buddy, sorry I missed your build progress on this one. I was away from the site for awhile taking care of lots of honey do lists and other personal issues. But I'm back now. Man what a nice job. Sorry to hear about the window issues.

Jim - great to see you back on here.  It's been insanely busy for me as well, but I'm trying to get some time in now that the holidays are here.

Paint looks excellent! I am going to have to check out those Gravity paints.

This looks really well built, very clean. I do have a couple questions.

First- What process do you use to flock? that looks way better than anything I have done.

Second- What camera are you using? Your pictures look fantastic.

I just pick the color closest to the flock in flat and flood the surface with paint and sprinkle the flock all around.  I make sure it is really covered, then brush it off a few hours later.

Nikon D3300 is my camera. Thank you!
