 It’s been a while since I posted something finished so I thought I’d post an old build.The body is painted Tamiya TS-52 candy lime green and the roof is Testers white lightning lacquer. The suspension is lowered and the wheels/tires are Pegasus Astros. The engine has a parts box dual carb set up with the air cleaner from AMT new tool 57 Chevy kit. The spark plug wires are from Pro Tech. The pinstripe decals are from my parts box.One of my favorite builds in my collection. Thanks for looking.

Beautiful looking paint colors and finish. I love the pin striping, just like the old days. The trim is all cleanly done. Like the air cleaner you used, looks like a lot of engine upgrades this way.

I love this, the Astros look great on it... I also love the lime green color. My wife has a late friend who's favorite color was lime green, so I saw this and showed it to my wife. You made her day!

Great work on a very sharp looking model. Being a big fan of green cars this one truly stands out to me. Don't ever recall seeing  a build here in that color but definitely would like to get a can for when I started spraying cars again next spring.

That's a sharp looking Olds Scott! The Candy Lime and Pearl White along with the Astros give it the old school vibe that suits it perfectly. I have one of these that I converted to a hardtop years ago. But, it never even made it to the primer stage. Your build makes me want to dig it back out! Nice work!
