Time to show the finished Fiat.  Paint is House of Kolors, blue candy over gold base = nice, deep green. Clear coat has intensive green modifier to add depth. Blower hat has only clear w/ modifier.

Many, many coats here.

This thing is unreal, awesome work. I've been a fan of Fuel Altereds for more than 50 years, and have seen my share of the insanity it takes to field one of these things.

The chassis looks amazing after the polishing! Sweet engine, body looks great in paint. Thumbs up!

Thanks Rich! Every time I finish a brass chassis, same thought comes up....a shame to paint it!  This one though, only polished. Just different.  Mike..

Hello Robert. I agree, the FAs do it for me as well. Although the FEDs are a very, very close 2nd.  If you are on Facebook, this fellow allowed me to use his chassis for this model. The all steel Fiat project was very well documented, really a treat to view. Finished last spring, now up and running well. FB, right here: https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/noquarterfuelaltered
