Thanx for the Compliment…..
Nope! Never! My very first attempt! I guess I’m a perfectionist by nature so I studied a lot of pic in the various forum galleries. This was fancied after a car I saw in a gallery that impressed me so much…

Check the gallery! The “Guam” car! that’s sweet.
I thought about the black & copper but this being my first try, I thought I’d keep it as simple as possible, just a partial paint job but put all the colors in the right places. I’m doing a bB now, just putting the finishing touches on then I’ll clear coat it and I’ll post that one soon, see how you like that one.DarkTari

True, but when you detail (lights, mirrors, exhaust, decals) it’s good to clear coat it to keep all that time consuming delicate detail stuff from wearing off. Know what I mean ?

Silver Paint. The one’s on my current project (bB) came out better.
My hand was a bit more steady….DarkTari

I’ll be doin some pullback wheels on future mods, I like the KIT wheels better on this one. I don’t particularly like black wheels unless it goes with the paint sceme I’m doing….I like the “Bling”

I used standard Testors spray paint and of course taped & cut parts to detail. I brushed the sun shield on the windshield.
