1966 Shelby GT350H

[mrmike]

Yesterday morning, I clearcoated the body and hood of my GT350H. After several hours of drying, I packed it up and took it to the Classic Plastic Model Club meeting and wowwed them with the fact that I was able to clearcoat the decals with Tamiya TS-13 Gloss Clear. I explained my procedure of 2 very light coats at first and then wait 20 minutes followed by 2 more slightly wetter coats, 1 hour drying time and a wet coat of clear. No wrinkling or damaged decals.

After a 4 hour stint at work this morning, I was able to spend some time on the Shelby afterwards. I've completed the interior.

The wheels and tires are done.

The side windows were foiled and all glass was installed.

This one looks very good so far. Nice to see you back at your bench. Interior looks good and I like the tires and wheels. Color is nice and those stripes fit perfectly. Great job with it so far, can't wait to see more.

Thanks Niko! I was hoping to finish the Shelby this weekend, but life has once again, gotten in the way. Oh well...

It's starting to come together now! The interior, body, and chassis are together!

Nice!! I like the color combo!

Thanks Andy! I had to have something different than the usual black GT350H and white was the alternative.
