As per your information request, this is an ERTL '66 Fairlane kit with aftermarket decals and hand cast wheels and tires. I used Testors Model Master paint for the blue and regular Testors for the gold. The red on the sail panel came as part of the decal sheet. The shop was built using Midwest Products clapboard siding in 1/2" size and the Coke machine came with an ERTL early model Chevy pickup and had two handtrucks also. The roll bars are hand bent and fitted, made from 3/32" Evergreen plastic tubing and the fenders were trimmed and flaired by thinning the panels and "pulling" with a #1 Xacto handle and no putty. The shop yard is "paved" with Woodland Scenics gravel roadbed for HO trains.

You're going to have to stop this photoshopping, it's starting to affect my perception of what's a model and what's not :bloated:
