SPRAY CAN OF ALCLAD CHROME???? Where do you get that from? I need about three.Just to start with.

Yes, Alclad does do chrome in a spray can and it works very well. I got mine from Model King, Dave Burket, at our club meeting on Friday night. I believe he got the supply from Stevens Hobby, which is a distributor who supplies a lot of hobby shops across the country.

The Alclad spray can also be sprayed into a small cup and brushed onto small parts. I've used it on door handles and scripts and it looks as good as real kit chrome.

I got a Revell Texaco/History Channel Porsche GT-1 Evo from a seller on eBay. I guess I will need to make 40 mile round trip to "local" hobby shop and across the street to Wal-mart

And got to file a claim against a seller on ebay, going on four weeks and no kit, but the BS keeps coming from the seller

I purchased a '70 Challenger flat hood, '69 MPC Coronet flat hood , '71 Duster and '70 Coronet bench seats from Hart's Resins......Nice stuff.....But it does need a few pinholes filled in ...The Coronet hood was bought for a future '69 Coronet 500 project....I just have to cut the R/T scoops off the body and blend in the same areas from the Revell/MONOGRAM '69 Super Bee.....Then add to proper trim for the 500, I've only owned the Coronet for fifteen years, About time to build the car.

I'd love to find one of those Cadillacs. Love the looks of it. How is the kit, quality wise?

Later-

Don't know yet. It should be here the 1st of the week .

The Hispana Suiza kit arrived a few weeks ago. It looks real cool, and huge compared to my usual 1/25 th scale subjects. I have a couple different Chrys kits and another early 30's cadillac as well. These will be for much later on

They have free shipping for orders over $40 this week, and the 40% off one regular priced item seems to be a permanent thing now, too.
