Dug this one out of the stash. This is T/A or R/T kit based on the diecast. I painted a few years ago with ScaleFinishes Plum Crazy enamel. I've left it sit for a while to dry good. Had some orange peel. So I grabbed a piece of 1000 and some water, then used some Mothers Pure Carnuba Pasta wax and rubbed it back up. Think it looks pretty slick. Wish the kit had the white longitudinal stripe for the sides. I grabbed a setof Mopar steelies and pias by tired for Fireball Modelworks. Never used them before. Any tips on the tires prior to applying the white letter decals?

I used them on my 1973 GTO I have under construction.  I cleaned scrubbed the tires with soap and water.  I applied the decals and used decal setting solution and let them dry.  73GTOWheels.jpg.18c8e7b9cf621b88d075089bd5eda2ac.jpg
