KILLER! wheres the injector hat from?

It’s from my parts box, I think it might have been from the Monogram Hurst Hairy Oldsmobile kit, as I have two of them.

Gorgeous paint! Can't wait to see the finished build.

Thanks Donato, it’s so close too,  I just need a little bench time.

I spent the day in the garage working on this, it’s almost finished. I remember ads in 1960s Hot Rod magazines advertising Cal Custom metal flake steering wheels in red, blue, green and silver, so in keeping in theme I painted the steering wheel metal flake Red. I added fuel lines to the injector as well as Champion Spark plug decals to the valve covers. I added the rear shocks and painted them. The next photos will be in Underglass. I need to paint under the hood, add the door handles and a few touch ups.

First, I really like this kit for a gasser build. It's a natural (AMT thought so.)  The black paint job makes me very envious. Absolutely beautiful. The rest of it is super nice too. I would keep the decal count low so as not to cover up too much of that paint job. ?. I'm following now, can't wait to see it completed!

Thanks Jim, I agree, I didn’t see a need for a ton of decals, less is more sometimes. It’s now posted under glass.

Cool. Going there now!

Nice build. But I don't know what to say about the black paintjob!
