Yes sir it looks really good sprayed it this morning before I went to work will give it plenty of time to dry this week. Will have more updates on it this weekend. I done figure I'm going to have to modify the firewall to fit around that engine. I'm also kicking around the idea of trying to use the decal's that came with the kit there's a set of red as well as green decal's.

I'm sure the white will need extra time to dry (One of the more touchy colors during drying time) at least for Testors paint I've found that true!
As for the decals, I'm unaware of this kit, BUT depending on that might just set the whole thing off! white car red striping.......Yeah, the combo on a build like this sounds good!
Can't wait to see where its at!

I think the decals are a great idea. Maybe layer them both one on the top of the other before you clear it.

I thought if nothing else they'd atleast be plastic gears! Mine are tightly machined tempered steel!!!!! LOL I'm so interested in how this build goes, its not funny! Curious at best! |
