Very nice builds, Greg!  Your paint finish looks great!  Would you mind sharing your process for painting, polishing, etc?

Thanks John. I am by no means a paint expert. If I get a good result, it is as much luck as talent.? Most of my paint jobs are air brushed either with Tamiya or Mr. Hobby laquers, or decanted spray bombs. For clears I have used Mr. Hobby,  Revell, Tamiya and one spray bomb I got from a local body shop supplier. I don’t polish anything.?

Nice, clean work on all but it should be no surprise that my favorite is the ‘33 Coupe. Runner up is the ‘69 Camaro. 

Thanks Dennis!

Great job. I love that Chevelle. (68 Malibu was my 1st car). Curious color choice on the jeep.

Thanks Bill. The Chevelle is probably my best work so far. Jeep is Mr. Color Russet.

Which kit is the Nova?  I've been working on the '66 Pro Street and have been fighting it all the way.  I hope you had better luck with yours.

Thanks for sending the link to the build thread.  I am just about finished with the Pro Street version.  I added the details from Revell's "Super Nova" and those really made it pop.  I'm sure you noticed in the instructions that there were many parts unclear of exact location.  I had to install, remove, adjust, and reinstall many of them.  I'll try to get some pictures posted this weekend when I am through.
