Painted Black Posted February 23, 2021 Author Share Posted February 23, 2021 OK, another quick update. Have the frame cleaned up for new cross members, got the body in primer, and I have an engine! Also seats from an AMT 58 Chevy will fit just right. Color?? Maybe BLUE. Thats all for now, will be back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Painted Black Posted February 23, 2021 Author Share Posted February 23, 2021 Got some paint on, I decanted the paint, but it was so thin straight from the can that I had to spray a coat from the can for the airbrush paint to cover. Wife said I had to show this... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
