JerseeJerry55 Posted June 6 Posted June 6 Hello all. I went into my stash and pulled out my AMT Cal Drag Combo. I decided to start the 1964 Ford Galaxie 500. Since it's a curbside model I give myself about a week to finish her off since there's rain in the weekend forecast. If I am correct this should beat my usual start it, put it aside, pick it up 8 months later, start it again...well you get the picture. The color I chose is Rustoleum Gloss Warm Yellow. The interior probably will be Black. We'll have to see. Kind regards, Jersee Jerry 55 3

However I usually have good results. And with the prices of Testor's One Coat, and Tamiya lacquer's sometimes ya gotta press down on the nozzle, spray, and hope for the best. After you have heated up the paint can in some hot water first that is. Kind regards, Jersee Jerry 55 2

meechum68 Posted June 6 Posted June 6 That's fair. On my 53 I had to mask it 5 times to get it decent enough to paint and then after I saw some issues, but it looks good from a distance.

IMHO I'm only building for myself and I am generally satisfied. 2
