Hey man, thanks for listening, not only will we enjoy seeing your cool and completed projects but we will see their progress also, like always nice job...............

[Harry P.]

How are you doing your dashboard gauges/radio face detailing? Dry brush or decals?

[oldstyle]

Harry

Dashboard and Radio face :

First : i lay down BMF on it

Second : A Thin Flat Black is Painted OVER the BMF

Third : After Drying , carefuly Rubbed away the Black Paint From the Higher areas From Radio and Gauges with a ToothPick

Thats All

Your English is great. My German is about ten words(all names of cars and racetracks). After seeing your interior I can't wait to see the body. Richard

Uwe

the Steelie,s are selfmade Resin part,s

[Frank Steffens]

That is beautiful! Did you also make the chrome hub caps from resin or are they kit parts?

[MrObsessive]

@ Frank Steffens

the Hup Caps are Kit parts from an 70 Roadrunner Kit ( monogram )

Regards Uwe

[Steve H.]

Beautiful work! All of your sub-assemblies look great, I'm sure it will look fantastic when it all comes together.

I use a similiar technique for gauges... but I start with black bare metal. Same idea, the black film rubs off the high points. Just saves me the paint step.

[oldstyle]

@ Steve

yes...a Nice Idea with the black BMF

Now ...i,m working on the Chassis and Engine. The KIT Engine is Not a Correkt 440 but , Why we have a parts box ?

The chassis is Lightly oversprayed with the Body color

Uwe

[oldstyle]

now... The engine is Wired.

still needs Small Things like Wipermotor and Battery...and then He,s Ready hope in the next week

Uwe

[Fisher61]

VERY nice job so far. Love the way you removed the molded-in wiper arms from the cowl so cleanly.
