Hi all,

This is a compilation of posts made on another forum (SPAM). Further posts will be made first person, I hope this all makes sense.

Thanks!

 

 

Oops I did it again...


It's been a minute, hi again. I have been working stupid hours and haven't really had a minute for modelling, but I got this 'stang from marketplace which really inspired me to get going. This is the pace car kit, monogram I believe.

I don't have pics yet, I will post some later tonight. So far the body is painted and polished, a nice shade of blue, yet to do chrome or trim/badges. Engine is wired, exhaust is painted. Suspension needs work.

I want to do a white or grey interior, as I am doing a white top. Thoughts? Maybe white with blue accents.

Here are my late pictures:

I wanted to experiment with making a full wire harness for most the electronics I can find. I am following these diagrams, starting with the tiny white thing at the end which I hope to make look properly like the starter relay.

More updates:
Engine bay wiring harness has been started, you can see where the line hooks up to the headlights and horn

Thanks guys!
Some updates:
Positive and negative battery wires added, water bag, horns are painted, I have started on the brake lines. chrome needs some touch ups. I corrected the wires to be black, from the grey there were before. Silverado had mentioned that they are wrapped in electrical tape, so i painted them black. I have to finish the soft top, do the chrome around the base of it, mirrors, headlights, the cross brace for the engine bay,

Engine bay complete, next stop is repainting some body parts due to... oopsies...

No hope separating the body, soooo I just did some taping and sprayed right on top. I fixed it! for the most part, there are two finger marks that appear on the surface, only one of which I am going to care about. The one on the hood is very visible to the human eye, I had a hard time capturing it on camera, so I circled the area in the photo. The one on the side on the door panel is less noticeable, but I did have some splotching on the opposite side, shown in pictures. Clear, polish and re-chrome and I am done!
