Hi Russell, another beautiful paint job sir. I’m no purist, that paint colour looks amazing!  Shiny. I’m with the others, I was expecting tubs and a hood scoop!

Cheers, Steve

Thanks Steve,

Hope you can join our Zoom meeting tonight! Got another couple projects on the go.

This Ferrari 250GT Spyder California was a rebuild that I first completed 20 plus years ago. It was not a bad build but the orange peel in the paint was terrible.

When a couple of trim pieces fell off I decided to see how far I could take it apart and it seemed to cooperate.

I kept the overall look it had before but lowered the stance and added MG brand wire wheels and tires.they almost have a big and little kind of look.the paint was an experiment using Tamils mica red then clear red and finally red russet pearl in clearcoat. I also added some 3D badges from model factory hiro and replaced the kit seats for something I had in my parts bin.

Although not perfect I’m much happier with this on the shelf now.

thanks for looking.
