outlaw035 Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 this ebay glue bomb started out to be a streetrod but after 3 days in the purple pond and the green paint was not coming off it was doomed to be a rat....i weathered the body and frame...replaced the wheels and tires from the parts box...(rear wheels are from a NASCAR)...left the grille shell just as it was after soaking in the pond...put a 409 with a blower in it..bomber seats from crazy jims scale auto parts...rated the interior which included a home made mexican blanket...custom shifter...etc.... here is the glue bomb...
Foxer Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 A good looking coating of rust. Can you say what you used for this?
Marcus M. Jones Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 (edited) great job on the Vick! did you use a store purchased brand of weathering or the salt water technique Edited August 2, 2013 by Marcus M. Jones
outlaw035 Posted August 2, 2013 Author Posted August 2, 2013 thank you everyone...foxer...marcus...for the weathering i primed the car with rust-oleum textured spray paint dosent really matter what color u use.it gives it the effect that u see on alot of old cars paint kinda a bumpy look...then i sprayed light coats of red primer...then u can rub so chalk over that very lightly...
Marcus M. Jones Posted August 3, 2013 Posted August 3, 2013 Thanks for letting us know what you used... never knew textured paint would work this good.
