Pete68 Posted March 11, 2019 Posted March 11, 2019 (edited) Here’s another one I started a couple years ago it was already built and Painted I didn’t feel like soaking it out so I painted it an old Testors Boyd purple that I have had probably for 25 years or so Edited March 11, 2019 by Pete68
Pete68 Posted March 11, 2019 Author Posted March 11, 2019 Think I’m going to stop here tonight. Repainted the interior and fix the windshield frame and chromed it
Sledsel Posted March 11, 2019 Posted March 11, 2019 Those are neat little kits, but needed some plating to make them stand out. I'll be watching
Pete68 Posted March 12, 2019 Author Posted March 12, 2019 Not much work this evening painted the wheels going to let them dry good before detailing them
Sledsel Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 those wheels and tires are a weak spot for these old 1/32 kits
Pete68 Posted February 20, 2022 Author Posted February 20, 2022 Well it’s been years since I touch this. Last night I decided to pick it up and give it another go. I removed the windshield again and this time I chopped it. I had a old Signature 1/32 Cadillac in the parts box so I took the wheels off of it and added them which I think really improved it. I also added the exhaust tips from the Caddy. Hope to have this done soon.
cobraman Posted February 20, 2022 Posted February 20, 2022 You did a great job on the wheels and tires.
bisc63 Posted February 20, 2022 Posted February 20, 2022 Excellent upgrade to this kit! She's looking nice.
Pete68 Posted February 27, 2022 Author Posted February 27, 2022 Thanks for the complements Guys. Using Wheels and tires from another source helps the looks of these old models
bisc63 Posted February 27, 2022 Posted February 27, 2022 It does look sharp with those wheels/tires, but the original seem to have a lot of fine detail cast in. I can't help but think they would paint up pretty decent.
