Now something different (for me) Old 1/24 Monogram kit from 1978 - built in 1985 straight out of the box - cut-out glass roof - black from the spray-can, clearcoated also. Trim is Humbrol silver brushed on - no polishing, no bare metal foil = old school in '70's street rod style.

Her is the box (picture from scalemates):

Now the model (pictures are from June, 2020)

Maybe old school but it's a beauty whit a nice black finish. I just love those fat fenders. I have the same kit, I went the yellow /black coca cola route. I will post it eventually.

I am currently working on a new background. A really nice job on an old kit . I really like what you did with it.

Haha....looks like Dr. Feelgood is in town with his snake oil.  That black looks great.  Love the old fat fender cars myself.

Well done! This one responds well to a straight-from-the-box build, especially when built this cleanly.

Thank you all - it was a break from the (back then) permanent building of trucks and stock versions of street cars.
