FordRodnKustom Posted January 14, 2008 Posted January 14, 2008 The clear is dry and I flat blacked the hood today. I was anxious to see how it was going to look, this is just a wobbly fun tac and masking tape mock up. Looking forward to adding the black bumble bee stripe! It's great when all the individual components of a build start to come together to form a 'look". What ya'll think?
Raul_Perez Posted January 14, 2008 Posted January 14, 2008 Oh yeah!!! I always liked the Super Bees!!! The new Super Bee trucks are pretty cool, too!! Keep up the pics and posts!!
crispy Posted January 14, 2008 Posted January 14, 2008 That looks like it means business! WOW! Color, stance, and the LOOK! Chris
blubaja Posted January 14, 2008 Posted January 14, 2008 What wheels and tires are you using? I mean, where are they from?
FordRodnKustom Posted January 14, 2008 Author Posted January 14, 2008 What wheels and tires are you using? I mean, where are they from? The wheels are from the new 49 Merc kit, the tires are from the kit (also same as in the Merc kit).
kelson Posted January 14, 2008 Posted January 14, 2008 excellent build so far ,like your choice for color ,keep the pic's coming.
Kenny Posted January 14, 2008 Posted January 14, 2008 That looks great! I love the color. Those rims are tough too.
blubaja Posted January 15, 2008 Posted January 15, 2008 Cool, what did you use to paint the redline tires then?
FordRodnKustom Posted January 15, 2008 Author Posted January 15, 2008 Cool, what did you use to paint the redline tires then? I scuffed the side walls good with a scotch Brite pad first. Good friend Don B., who also posts on this board, applied the red lines with Tamiya flat red jar acrylic paint loaded in to a quill tip bow compass. An old 64 GTO hup cap was used as a center pivot point. This is a skill I haven't mastered yet!
mikelo Posted January 15, 2008 Posted January 15, 2008 That is coming together great! Great stance & color. I love the finish. Keep it up.
Don B Posted January 18, 2008 Posted January 18, 2008 That color looks ###### good Ron! Only thing is now Im in the mood for some candy. LOL
