philo426 Posted April 22, 2012 Posted April 22, 2012 I recently picked up the new Moebius '55 Chrysler 300 and it is a great kit!I decided to paint it like my Grandfather's '56 Chrysler New Yorker,which was painted coral pink with a black roof.IT was not easy to mix the paint!The first batch came out like Barbie pink,so i had to add dark red and a little black to achieve the coral color i was after. Here it is after the first coat!
philo426 Posted April 23, 2012 Author Posted April 23, 2012 (edited) i gave it the 3rd coat today and plan to put the body "in the bag"(lunchbag) to paint the roof black. Edited April 23, 2012 by philo426
philo426 Posted April 24, 2012 Author Posted April 24, 2012 Took it out of the bag and its lookin' good!

Bartster Posted April 24, 2012 Posted April 24, 2012 Awesome looking color combo. Let's see more, please.
philo426 Posted April 27, 2012 Author Posted April 27, 2012 I tell you what guys,this kit has one of the most impressive engines I have ever seen.When is the last time an engine had a kit supplied trans fluid dipstick and a road draft tube?Great molding!
cobraman Posted April 27, 2012 Posted April 27, 2012 I would like to echo what has been said about the color combo. Very nice.
JMD904 Posted April 28, 2012 Posted April 28, 2012 What nice detailing of the engine! I've never built or had a kit with a road draft tube or any dipsticks!
philo426 Posted April 29, 2012 Author Posted April 29, 2012 I'm loving the engine!The Batwing air cleaner is really boss!
philo426 Posted April 29, 2012 Author Posted April 29, 2012 Even without the air cleaner it looks like a dragster engine!
bryan_m Posted April 29, 2012 Posted April 29, 2012 wow! that is a good lookin kit! i love the color combo, and the engine is sweet.....cant wait to see more. cheers bryan m
