This one started out good, but I'm not too pleased with the way it turned out. The Rustoleum 2X white gloss paint seemed to have to went dull after a few days except on the hood.

Looks great, sorry to hear about your paint issues, but they aren't visible in the pictures.  I like the Miller Beer signage.

Great looking Panel. I like the white/gold combo. The paint looks good on the photos. Paint can be a pain sometimes. A lot of variables can affect the paint. Regardless, that's a cool looking build. Well done James

Thanks Mario. I think it may have something to do with the conditions here at my property. I live in a farming area, and there is a big peanut field right behind my house. My work shed is out back close to the field. It's been very dry here and when they were harvesting the peanuts it created a lot of dust, which seeps into every small crack in windows and doors. The body was uncovered in my shed and probably picked up some light dust film while curing, the Rustoleum stays tacky for quite a while. I need to start covering my parts until they are fully cured.

A great idea well executed! 

It's a bummer about the paint issues, I've had my troubles with Rustoleum too. They have so many great colors but unfortunately I feel like I'm taking a risk every time I use their product.

Nice build James. I'll have to get this kit.      Cheers, David. ??

Thank you David.  It's a nice kit. Got mine at Walmart a few months ago.
