Mwwyrick Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Hi, this is my first build after 30 years. I'm thinking of nicknaming her "Bloodshot" cause that's what my eyes were after fussing over those doors... this is my humble offering to this awesome group.

Mwwyrick Posted December 7, 2016 Author Share Posted December 7, 2016 (edited) Thank you gentleman!Question, as I have been looking over others builds, is it to late to run lines and such for the motor and or brakes? I also installed the glass before spraying dullcote on the cab, is it too late for that as well? Edited December 7, 2016 by Mwwyrick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't spray dull over the glass, it will make it look frosted and definitely not clear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regarding the windshield, you can mask off the areas where the wiper blades "sweep", and then dullcoat everything. When you remove the tape, the clear areas will look like those on 1:1 vehicles.

Mopar - D Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 Nice Dodge Mark, welcome back to building again. I also had a long break in building to and have found that a lot of things have changed from back then. And it's all for the good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
