GeeBee Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 What a superb build, love the colour, I'm a great fan of 50's American cars, I may well add this to the stash, what was it like to build ??
RandyB. Posted October 23, 2012 Author Posted October 23, 2012 (edited) Thanks guys for all of the great compliments on this build. As I said earlier, it was a very enjoyable kit to build but I wasn't too fussy on the wide whitewall tire decal. Seems as though the decal was very thick and didn't want to lay down over the tire too well. I had to use an exceptional amount of decal set to soften it up a bit and then a little dullcoat brushed over the whitewall to take some of the shine off. Edited October 23, 2012 by RandyB.
