Plastic_Passion Posted January 14, 2017 Author Posted January 14, 2017 I'm liking this color more every time I see it....thanks! The lighting and pics really don't do it any justice. But it's definitely grown on me a bunch. It really sparkle nice when the light hits it right. I'll have to take some outside pics when I finally get it done. I'm surprised at how well the engine red agrees with it as well as it does.
Modlbldr Posted January 14, 2017 Posted January 14, 2017 Beautiful work on this one. Like everyone else, I love the paint color. Got a 69 to build and some early 70's ones. Makes me want to get on them.Later-

Plastic_Passion Posted January 15, 2017 Author Posted January 15, 2017 So I can only post 3 more megabytes worth of pics to this thread.... which means I guess to show more progress I'd have to start a part two thread??? Is that true?
Johnt671 Posted January 16, 2017 Posted January 16, 2017 It looks nice. Great color and the engine is super.

Plastic_Passion Posted January 17, 2017 Author Posted January 17, 2017 At some point I had to use a pic hosting site, photobucket Ok cool so I've seen some people doing that. Now do you personally just some herd and then a link to your bucket page?
Plastic_Passion Posted January 17, 2017 Author Posted January 17, 2017 Ok so I've signed up for photobucket and will be posting updates to the vette on that page and will post a link when I get it up and going. I will post it in the glass section and on pbucket when finished also. If your interested, please stay tuned and check it out. Thanks again for the tips and comments!

Plastic_Passion Posted January 22, 2017 Author Posted January 22, 2017 Just found this same vette basically the same color on Google done by a guy with the username cartpix... I made my color and the other car is painted Boyd pearl orange. Crazy how close the colors are. His car looks very nice.
