Daniel Lynch Posted August 29, 2008 Posted August 29, 2008 Wow! How many bottle of Model Master Chrome Yellow need to fill up your tank? Do you are connected direct to the Model Master paint tank? Daniel
walt francis Posted August 30, 2008 Author Posted August 30, 2008 The instruction call out for a decal on the wheel but it is the same as the gauge package on the floor ...Oh well no biggie Put the washer bottle in not thinking this is a drag car Just need to rub it out and foil and put the suspension under her and get her up on her wheels This car almost builds its self

walt francis Posted August 31, 2008 Author Posted August 31, 2008 Just had to strip the chrome off the wheels I am not a bling kind of guy Just a quick mockup shot with metalizer aluminum and black touchup I don't know why they look all narly in the pic finished wet sanding and shooting three more coats and had to mock it up to see how they look on it
stump Posted August 31, 2008 Posted August 31, 2008 Looking very good Walt. I think you nailed the stance, and it looks way better without the shiney on the wheels too...
Joe Handley Posted August 31, 2008 Posted August 31, 2008 Hey walt, what chrome stripper did you use?
62SS Posted August 31, 2008 Posted August 31, 2008 Nice job Walt. Love the color, And those wheels look so much better without the chrome. Cant wait to see it finished. Ed

walt francis Posted September 1, 2008 Author Posted September 1, 2008 Hey walt, what chrome stripper did you use? I use easy-off oven cleaner in the yellow can Just about 10 Min. DONE !
walt francis Posted September 7, 2008 Author Posted September 7, 2008 Just got a new sheet of foil and now I can get the Nova foiled..I think this is the best sheet I have ever got in a while I always do my windows the sides first then the top and bottom I use a 1/8 x 1/8 piece of balsa wood to burnish my foil All the script is foiled before I prime and paint then the paint is rubbed off with a pencil eraser and 90% alcohol Comments always welcome
Harry P. Posted September 7, 2008 Posted September 7, 2008 Nice and clean on the trunk lock and "Nova" script.
