A couple of new projects, fresh outta paint and mocked up

[Deano]

First up is the 'Long John' dragster from Monogram. I think this is the Galaxie reissue as it came with resin tires with the wide whites already done. The wheels are the kit pieces covered in Bare Metal foil and lightly sanded (chucked them in the lathe and hight them lightly with some sandpaper; 800 grit, I think).

This the Revell B-M 69 Camaro. It's gonna be basically box stock with some minor parts swaping goin' on (wheels from the AMT Concept Camaro, exhaust from the Revell 69 Yenko Camaro). Paint is Tamiya Mica Red with 3 coats of Tamiya Transparent Red. Looks much more intense in real life.

Whatcha all think?

Nice on both. That Camaro is looking GREAT! Love it!

Thanks,

Cool builds!!

[Irvin Arter Jr.]

those wheels look great on the 69 Camaro!

Nice projects! I don't know if I've ever seen a Long John built... you may be breaking new ground!

Funny how the concept wheels look better on the classic Camaro than they do on the new one!
