Little Deuce - Original Restoration

[TooOld]

This is a restoration of an original Monogram Little Deuce using 99% of the original parts and original decals . The only non original parts are the resin cast headlight lenses and the soft top bows .  Fun kit to restore and it's my "one and only" finished build for 2016 ! 

These next photos show what I started with .

More finished photos . . .

I have always been a big fan of box art builds....But this one being an almost all original restoration makes it that much cooler..!!

And the fact you did an absolutely beautiful job on it makes it my favorite box art build I've seen...!!!

Outstanding...!!!

It's Alcad II Chrome . I did have an issue while spraying so it's not the best , should have more shine when done right .

One of my weakest points is being consistent with Alclad. Yours looks good from here!
