1 bad55 stan Posted May 28, 2014 Author Posted May 28, 2014 Looking better and better Stan.. Cheers Carl
1 bad55 stan Posted May 28, 2014 Author Posted May 28, 2014 looking killer Stan. great detail. this thing just oozes horsepower. . . . . and I think the shifter is in backwards. the cable will be coming from the small portion of the shifter and looping thru the floor ti the trans shift lever. Cheers Tubbs,Might have to change something...
1 bad55 stan Posted May 28, 2014 Author Posted May 28, 2014 Here is another update,I got the exhaust done,i used some old mufflers some strip styrene an some detail masters flanges.I sanded out the body an painted a gold base coat.After i let that bake(in the sun) i gave it a few coats of clear red...I'll leave it for a day or two and then i'll clear it. Before the paint. Just have to add the exhaust tips. The base coat.
1 bad55 stan Posted May 28, 2014 Author Posted May 28, 2014 The top coat, Sorry but these photos don't show the gold base that well.Hope you like it!!
