You have a great start there. I like that color.

Thanks Jeff.

I mixed three different paints to try and achieve the original engine color. Came out pretty good.

The body paint is a green metal flake by Testors. It was a pain to mix to the right ratio. I nailed the purple metal flake on my hemi cuda though. This is only my second build in 12 years. This was the first I did a couple months ago.

I don't suppose you remember which paints and what ratios?

[Field_Artillery63]

Lol. Testors gunmetal, testors flat sea blue, and testors gloss green and thinner. Ratio wise I have no idea! Just mixed until satisfied lol

Thanks Earl.
