CB Posted January 6, 2009 Posted January 6, 2009 Lookkin' GOOD! Arby. Love the colors--specially the green in the engine- . I'm planning a '37 Chevy rattty sorta build, and may just do something similar. Can't wait to see the Willys in paint.
arby1949 Posted January 9, 2009 Author Posted January 9, 2009 Progress report: Started the painting, needs more coats. also trimmed the front to match the curve of the top of the grill. More to come.
george 53 Posted January 9, 2009 Posted January 9, 2009 OOOOO, Arby I LIKE the color! What is it? an by who.? The whole thing just comes together, now that the body's painted!Finish that bad boy up, so we can see it in ALL it's glory!
arby1949 Posted January 9, 2009 Author Posted January 9, 2009 The paint is Testors one coat lacquer, "lime ice" I really like the way it goes on and dries quickly. I still have to do the black on the top portion. Thanks for the comments.
plastikfreek Posted January 10, 2009 Posted January 10, 2009 The Willys is lookin' beautiful.................... ..........Love the consistent use of the green/black color combo throughout the build.....................Great Job!!!!!!!!!!!
arby1949 Posted January 12, 2009 Author Posted January 12, 2009 nearing completion on the Willys. Needs some touch-up work.
