This is primered w/ marked idea for factory stripes, interior needs a small touch up, used flocking i got from michaels,12pk. 5.99 not glittery type, recollections is the name its better than 8bucks a tube at lhs, nice product only 2 iffy colors u can see how much is in the tubes still. silver chassis, engine close to color, am using chrome tanks and accessories from my own w900 kw kit. Silver metallic/purplish base with orchid and lavender stripes is happening as soon as the store opens so i can get my paints and some other goodies etc..also need paint for my "Fast Times z-28 model" That and thx again Dr.c, I need stuff for my 49 merc. now i see why you like this 1 so much, it is awesome..sorry for the novel, it just a grest day 2 be here.I have several soon to be's but this one needs finished comments, ideas, help is always appreciated.
