I've been working on this for quite a while..Never did resin before and all is new..Chassis and body didn't work well so got friend who has dremel to shave some off the bottom of front fenders..It worked..I painted it 65 Dodge Dark Turquoise Metallic out of bomb made by auto paint shop.. Cleared with Duplicolor Acrylic Enamel then  wet sand 2000-4000..Finished with Meguiar's Scratch X 2.0 then Maguiar's Gold Class paste..Tried the UV gluing in glass and worked(Bondic, Canadian Brand)  Interior sprayed from distance same as car..So far so good but I don't work too much on same because I don't want to lose patience..Hope picture shows well..Can't remember brand of resin kit..

Wayne, looks great. You had a '65 in that same color or I am thinking of another car?

I had one and sold it. its still around  an older guy in Headingly or Charleswood has it now..Thats what I'am trying to build..I only build box stock as I don't wire or plumb..Patience and dexterity have lots to do with that..As long as its clean and doesn't show hair/fingerprints or glue marks I'am pleased..Got to look good though..How are you doing?

Looks really nice!! Actually though what you are building is a '65 Coronet. The 330 name wasn't used in 1965. In 1964 you could get a 330. In '65 you could get the basic Coronet (2 or 4 door sedan), Coronet 440 (2 door hardtop or 4 door sedan and maybe a vert- not sure), and Coronet 500 (2 door hardtop or convertible). Love that color!!
