Excellent use of colors here with the white walls, red rims, white engine bay and yellow.
I think is excellent execution and a very good example of a car from this genre.

Thanks man
The red rims are in fact Iceracer's idea but I'll take the credits :D

It is a thin coat of Tamiya Chrome Yellow.
I only sprayed mistcoats, no wetcoats because a thicker coat would make it more orange-ish and I didn't want that :)

:) Look great, i like cars from this era, very nice job, someday i be that good, how long was the build, right now i'm building a 34 ford ragtop pro street, i planned too have it done by a year or so , working on it part time and most parts have too be hand built ,and buying part's off e bay and that's very spendy ,and i've never ever seen a 34 ford ragtop, lot's hardtop's out there , but this one i have was built in 1977 as 33 ford hardtop with 350 chev engine -400 turbo, monogram orginal, new then and had it a long time , then had on shelf as i got married , then dev , and she took hammer time , so top is gone anyway, hardtop and pile of part's,and the new build up will be a 49 flathead with blower and lenco 6 speed wth 4 bar 9 inch , with phat tire combo rims , so it will be all ford this time out, so it might take me awhile , but i'm old and slow anyway and need something to do anyway at night ,after work, great job on the build up , Everett.:smile:
