Hi. This was supposed to be a quick build but you know how that story goes :disappoin . Anyway, the paint is Duplicolor Orange Mist with Duplicolor clear, wheels are 18" FujimiWork Euroline SUVs with the center webbing painted black to remind me somewhat of modernized Cragar SS wheels, XS Tuning brakes, Fujimi mufflers modified to fit and Bare Metal Foil trim. I shaved the drip rails and door handles as well. I'll eventually get around to putting a list up in the classifieds section but right now, models are kind of on the back burner. Thanks for looking.:)

Amazing paint job. I really like the color. The wheels are kinda cool too, I think you got the "Pro-Touring" look on this one. Got any engine pics?

Looks great in that color,
I'm working on the same kit but making slow progress... It keeps getting pushed back for other projects...

Nice! Good color choice. It almost looks as though it could be a period correct factory color. Very stylish.

That looks great!!! I used that orange color once, but mine didn`t come out nearly that brilliant. What color primer did you use? Did you use the kits decals?

I think I can see myself in the reflection! Awesome job. One suggestion, the SS badge on the grill be painted black.

Looks like something Henry Hill (Ray Liotta, Goodfellas) would ride out in to do some dirty work. :D

Nice!

That is a clean paintwork dude!

But let me have one negative remark - I think the brake disc does not looks realistic. the venting holes are very large and out of scale.

That's where "artistic license" comes into play because the holes that were on the disc were already that same size; all I did was to drill them all the way through without any enlargement of the diameter. Thanks though. :)

Yes, I know. I know that it is not your mistake that the holes are drilled too big. It was just a remark. Next time you should use Tamiya of Fujimi brake disc :)

I am aware of the multitude of options avaiable to me; especially the excellent SAS P/E brake sets of which I could've used but chose not to. Your observation was an excellent one and i thank you for it. :smile:

That looks AWESOME Tonio.. :smokin:

Beautifull paintwork, the colour just glows.
Nice choice of wheels too, they suit the build perfectly.

cheers
