Green 50 Olds

[Scalper]

Hello This is a build that I have to complete for my club before our big show in september

the kit the the whole club will be building was the 50 Olds. Was my choice too and it won.

So better get started

got some paint on her.

Thanks for looking

Andre...who makes that paint ?

I believe you just made my day with that shade of green.

[slusher]

Very nice color...

[Scalper]

Hey Joker the paint is model master Citrus Yellow Metallic rattle can .. Not an easy paint to use

[Gluhead]

Yeah. Excellent color choice. I fell for that "yellow" as soon as Testors came out with their synth lacquer line. It'll look great on that fat curvy body.

[Ridge Rider]

Nice start, I'm really liking the finished models I've been seeing-thinking I need one. I would be interested in hearing of any problems or positives as this build progresses, If you would be kind enough to share. Thanks for sharing and looking forward to this build.

Do you think revell would send replacement tires for this car. when I tried to put the wheels in as per the insrtutions. the back side of the wheel took parts of the whitewalls off.

argh

Thanks

Looks good so far . Good luck with the wheel.

[Scalper]

Thanks Andy

Tip on The Wheels.. install the back part with the pin from behind , then just install the outer rim "steely side" from the front.

hope that helps some people from avoiding wrecking the white walls..

Thanks
