starting on this one. it will be "go mango" for the color.

gotta have some grease and gunk on the old engines!

That motor is excellent! keep it up.

gunkified the engine bay a little, just wanted it lightly weathered.
the interior is flocked I use embossing powder for that.

good job so far

more body work. The window trim on the front and side windows was poorly engraved and would have disappeared under a layer of paint.

so I made new ones from some stretched sprue and sanded them to shape. I also sanded off the "chrome trim" around the wheel openings, i never liked the look of that on muscle cars. I'll throw some primer on later and check how its looking and if i need to tweak it.
Oh and I re scribed all the panel lines so there nice and deep!

Again, that is truly beautiful! that is actually how they look! my old 1:1 chrysler looked like that!

The one thing that really grabs my eye is the carpet-it looks so plush, like it's brand new.

The weathering on the engine is perfect. It's just the right amount of grime.

JTRACING · 03-07-2010, 06:53 PM

stuck some paint on . no clear coat either, I wanted a factory look so I only polished the enamel paint using some scratch X.

Perfect colour.
