Here's my take on the AMT 61 Ford Ranchero. Painted Model Master One Coat Laquer Fiery Orange with Future brushed on.  I used the kit supplied decals and wheels . This was a first for me foiling the Ranchero script before painting and rubbing the paint off, I'll being doing that from now on. Thanks for looking.

Ya know, I really done care much for this model........But this one this is hot great color and paint, well done

Thanks guys. I too didn't car for the looks of the car so I thought it needed something different done to it to spruce it up.

Very, very nice indeed! Love the color and you got a great finish! About the only change I'd make would be to paint the spokes of the wheels with a flat silver, dark steel, or maybe even semigloss black.

Super sharp!! Awesome color!! Would you mind explaining to me the process you used on your emblems? I'm working on a '69 Camaro and ended up sanding them off and ordering a photo etch set. I always put 1-2 coats of paint and 6 coats of clear so it's easy to lose small details like emblems and badges. I do think it'll look awesome with the photo etch, but I'd rather have saved my money...

After last coat of primer lay your Bare metal foil down and cut it as close as possible to the emblem. Paint as normal and after paint has dryed well use blunt toothpick to carefully scrape the paint off the emblem. This was my first attempt and I think it turned out ok.
