The one thing I will say. IMO the body line down the center of the car isnt as sharp as I feel it should be.

So maybe you all in detail builders might look into some fine masking . sanding body line work to sharpen it 

Sharp eye on that body line Bill, I’m inclined to agree with you, it appears crisper on the original kit.

Have you folks noticed that the seats that you would think that are all black in the 71s (buckets)  are actually black and grey inserts?   I just kind of noticed that in the last week or two.

I got some Tamiya clear on this end of last week.

 

And was quite displeased in the gloss it gave...or lack of to be more accurate. 

 

I spent almost all day polishing it by hand . It's OK. 

But far from perfect.

 

I'll go back to duplicolor or maybe Upohl urethane clear from here on.

 

I'm in southern AZ. So can't blame it on humidity....we ain't got none
