GeeBee Posted January 16, 2017 Author Posted January 16, 2017 Since finishing the 48 Ford and the Beetle convertibles, I've managed to crack on with this one, really not a great deal to do now to gt this one finished Chrome bumper overriders touched up with Molotow liquid chrome pen after the parts had been cut off the sprue and sanded smooth
Bennyg Posted January 16, 2017 Posted January 16, 2017 Wow! What a great kit and awesome work too.Ben
GeeBee Posted January 22, 2017 Author Posted January 22, 2017 Nearly ready for the display cabinet, a lot of the parts once cut from their parts tree needed touching up, or re-chroming completely, the Molotow liquid chrome pen has really come in so handy on this build, for some reason, the headlamp reflectors weren't chromed at all, again, liquid chrome to the rescue, the over riders on the bumpers, both front & rear were redone using the liquid chrome pen
jaymcminn Posted January 22, 2017 Posted January 22, 2017 Beauty. The color is perfect and your work is top notch... in fact, I've finally decided to get started on my 356 Speedster now that you're finishing your Cabrio. I just ordered one of those Molotow markers... any tips on using them?
Scalper Posted January 22, 2017 Posted January 22, 2017 Looking very nice. Super clean. Great work. Happy you pulled this one back out.
