Thank you CC I plan on going wild on this build. I've got stuff to do fuel lines possibly brake lines depending on how much tubing I have. The interior is going one of 3 ways black and white. Black white and tan or tan and black.

Hey Mike, I took a look at the pictures and one picture of the car it had no engine badge on the right front fender and another one had it. With the road wheels and stripes it was there too. Was this a 6 banger car converted to a V8?

It's the badges on both sides just the lighting wasn't the greatest I wish I knew how to BMF all the really small badges it would definitely make it look much more realistic.

I found a neat little trick. Tried it on a couple of things and it worked but the finish was not as bright as I wanted. Take something like a silver paint marker and brush a little on to your fingertip. Wipe of some leaving residue on your fingertop. Gently graze the letters you are painting wiping lightly sideways a few times. Silver has a lot of pigment and it spreads when the silver is rubbed. Try it on a scrap body and see if it works. Good luck!
