tyrone Posted April 12, 2015 Author Share Posted April 12, 2015 Lookin good Tyrone. What turbos are you using on this build? Len I got the turbos from Model Meister.. these were the biggest ones the had... Wheels and tires look great Tyrone. Getting close to paint soon...? Carl hopefully I can get some paint on it tomorrow... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tyrone Posted April 15, 2015 Author Share Posted April 15, 2015 Thank you fellas for the kind words.. I really appreciate it.. I was able to get a few coats of paint on this one.. I used Model Master paint I decanted from a spary paint can to a bottle and sprayed thru my air brush.. It's got a little bit of trash/dust in the paint.. I'll give it a few days, wetsand it and put a couple more coats on... Thanks for looking and comments welcome... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
