May I suggest a tip for you? Before painting the car, You should have added Strip Styrene to all of you panels, To close up the oversized gaps.Or used another body as a donor for the Doors,Trunk,Ect, Very Nice paint job. When I cut panels out, I use 2 bodys, One for the panels, Doors,Trunk,Ect, And the other for the main body. That way you can sand back the edges to have a perfect fit, I cut out the doors and other panels oversized from the donor body, And cut the Body i'll be using for my build undersized in those areas, That way I can sand back the edges to make a perfect fit for all of your body panels, Just a little food for thought .For your next build .

Krylon is the brand name. Not sure if its available in the UK.

BTW... it's "Saddle" not "Sadel"...

Tamiya's spray laquer TS 46 Light Sand, TS 68 Tan and AS 15 USAF Tan are all real close. I use the AS 15 Tan for my interiors.

If you're going to tell someone the name of the color you used, the least you can do is get the name right... and not blame it on your phone. :unsure:

what is it about this thread that has everyone so confrontational? Let the guy build his model the way he wants and keep all the other ###### to ourselves. The guy just wants to share his build with us and those of us who aren't rabid Dukes of hazzard fans or spelling and grammer cops, just want to be able to follow along with out having to wade through a whole lot of bickering.

I'm enjoying your build, But a word of advice, It's really not at all in your benefit , Or smart to make rude commments to Harry, Or Gregg. They have this forum up for all of us . How I check my spelling, Is type the first 3 letters into my toolbar, It wiil show you the propper spelling, And by no way don't think I'm attacking you at all, I'm just letting you know,That you cannot do things like this statement above. They made this forum for us all to enjoy and share our builds with others. By the way , Back to the Model, I think you're doing a great job on it, I really like that Orange. Very Nice.

I really like this build. I have one planned myself one day. I was wondering, what tires are you using with those wheels? I've got a set of wheels from jb hobbies, but don't have any tires in my stash that look right.

Thanks...Travis

Thanks for the comments guys.... im tryin to get the body done . but its been soo hot here in the metro east st louis last few days..lol

as for the tires they are revell an monogram tires .. michelin trx.. from like the 67 pro street kit (front tires).. some 60s mustangs i think had them . and a ton of other kits...

. i like the way these tires look .. better than some of the rest ive tryed out..
