1962 Plymouth HT, Johan

[peekay]

Obviously I'm on a roll here so here's another classic Johan, built curbside about 15 years ago.
This was painted at a time when I had professional access to automotive paints and it's my own custom metallic mix followed by clear coats, all from Sikkens. (I don't use automotive paints these days.) Interior colours are Humbrol and are pure guess-work. Windows are acetate.
The clear went on a bit too thick with this one, which made detailing the emblems virtually impossible, so I just foiled them and left it that. Of course, these days I would foil before paint and add whatever paint detail is needed before clear.
And once again the wheels are not stock, the originals need a re-chrome. And yes, a free ice cream to all who can identify the wheels I used - should be easy this time.

Another beauty! I love the '62 Plymouths and Dodges. Their styling was so unique (weird?)! Great model!
