Joker Posted September 9, 2013 Author Posted September 9, 2013 Thanks y'all.. Got some paint on the IMC gluebomb...rear seats and door panels were glued on good. Because of its age and frailty of the styrene I just let them be and shot fabric tan on them ..then taped the interior of ..then shot the primer and paint. First paint choice was the Citrus Yellow..but it looks too modern to my eye. Second color was some blue Dupli-Color I had in my stash. blah blah blah interior taped up..body sprayed with Model Master Citrus Yellow
Joker Posted September 10, 2013 Author Posted September 10, 2013 IMC color change... Citrus Yellow is cool but to modern for this particular build. Dupli-Color blue it is..
JustBill Posted September 10, 2013 Posted September 10, 2013 I'm loving these James. Great call on the color change. That blue is popping.

Joker Posted September 12, 2013 Author Posted September 12, 2013 Got the Fords grins installed and the head lights. BMF work done....onto glass work..got templates done as seen on the burgundy one. Usually I'll start the bodywork on Kustoms first and engines last. With Hot Rods....it's the engine first...body last. JoKer
