I can now finally call this one completed. With all the issues with the paint and the aches in the hands from trying to rub it back and then the cutting and polishing it is nice to put this one away. I am happy to have it done and it looks OK but not really how I envisaged the final finish, I feel the decals are due better to be honest. The decals went down well but I did double up on the numbers as I felt the fluro red stripe did bleed through and so while I was at that I also doubled up on the Exxon logos to make sure all the white sections looked the same.
I do like the look of the Lumina so this will fit in well with the Foyt car and others.

Great job on a kit full of challenges. And nice job of getting the stance right too.
