Another Rare Restoration, AMT 64 Buick Wildcat.

[Porscheman]

Another one of my ebay wins, $23 bucks. This one was brush painted red with white latex house paint interior. Stripped it in Purple Power and painted it with Lowes Valspar pale yellow with 10 coat of clear. The interior was done in Tamiya semi-gloss black. The only parts from The Modelhaus are the tail light lenses. All chrome was bare metal foiled including the bumpers.

The paint didn't come as shiny as I like, but it looks ok.

Thanks for looking.

I did the same thing with a gluebomb '64 Wildcat 'vert years ago. I never reinstalled the engine. Mine is Red. I enjoy looking at your builds.

How about something subtle, like Desert Fawn Poly?
