Aqua Rod Depth Charger

[BIGTRUCK]

AMT Showrod painted 3 colors, all seams sanded out. The problem with this kit is the chrome attachment points, when cut away it leaves 2 sometimes 3 bad spots, plus an unsightly raised seam , so I'm sanding those also and removing the chrome on items for painting. The kit looks easy and would be a quick build if not for all the extra work..

The tires were another issue, rims and trim rings were a very tight fit and would not seat in the proper spot. Had to grind out the tires with a rotary tool until the rims fit easily once they were painted. 3 tries to get the proper fit.

Interesting; looks like a fire hydrant. Was this a real car?

Shot clear on the frame then knocked it over, into the stripper and back in primer.On any 2 piece chrome parts the chrome was removed and painted after seams removed.They gave you 4 glass color options Amber, Clear ,Purple and the color I chose , Blue... Not much left to build , should be done with it once last of the paint and clear coat dries..

Kind of looks like a Minion from Despicable Me that I watched with the grand kids..
