Man there's a lot of those on the forum right now. I like the color of the silver on that body, looks sleek. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lownslow Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 Scanned the AMT 76 Caprice and did a Brougham gangster window conversion, was going full top but decided on keeping it a Landau, i designed 9 different versions of side fillers and 4 rear fillers so there will be a lot of different combos coming 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FoMoCo66 Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 I wired my first engine with actuall wire yesterday. It was the S&M 71 cuda hemi. The daunting thing was that the car has 2 distributors, but that was no problem since I just took it 1 distributor at a time. I also did fuel lines and carb linkage. It really wasn't that bad and I am really happy with the results! Yes the real car looks like a hairball with that tangle of wires to. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catpack68 Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 I painted a Revell 71 Boss 351 body a little bit ago. This will be a box stock build. The color is Tamiya TS-20 metallic green,which looks a little like Grabber Green metallic. Close enough for me anyways😁 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CabDriver Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 I’m I’m on a real T-bucket kick lately but I don’t really want to keep buying kits to get the bodies when I’m scratchbuilding and kitbashing about everything BUT the body…so I just printed a batch… I know the door lines should go out, not in, but stock Ts don’t have V8s and crazy paintjobs either so I can live with it… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevenGuthmiller Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 On my way to completing a 2-barrel Rochester carb for my '64 Lemans project. Just added a little detail to a center carb from the Revell '66 GTO kit. Not perfect, but with some detail painting and a little weathering, it should do pretty well.

atomicholiday Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 Fired up the airbrush and painted a few small parts today. First time in around ten years! Man I'm out of practice. Also, not sure about this new airbrush I picked up. It's probably my technique, but it seemed like it used way more paint than I remember. Felt like it was spraying full throttle or not at all. I'll keep practicing, but I might switch back to my old airbrush. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My old airbrush is a Testors Aztek A480. I did some more experimenting yesterday. I think it’s mainly just me getting used to the difference between the two. Operator error.

Yes, lots of variables when getting into airbrushing, the operator being the most variable of all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
