Modellpularn Posted October 3, 2012 Posted October 3, 2012 (edited) A guy over here in Sweden has a '63 Nova wagon, and he cut the top open. Then installed an orange plexi sheet. Looks real cool! Not sure, I might have some pic of it... I found a pic, but not of the top. The whole car. Here it is: Edited October 3, 2012 by Modellpularn

lanesteele240 Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 I am in the dark about the foil and eraser. Will some body lead me to that post or explain what he is doing Thankz
Belair2k Posted October 20, 2012 Posted October 20, 2012 Gary, After painting an eraser will remove the paint, leaving the "chrome" letters.
jbwelda Posted October 20, 2012 Posted October 20, 2012 i am dying to try that foiling method on my next build! and it might be this superwagen. its really a kool looking kit! and your mods are making it look killer. i assume its going to be low.
