Kind of an expensive kegerator, eh? Are you gonna stick the tap right through the hood, too? You'll be the most popular guy at the Ferarri meets...

The Miura was sprayed orange tonight. A little orange peel , but not too bad. I'll have to let that cure, then mask off the body to spray the kick panels aluminum.



I sanded the hood flush on the 360, and gave it a light coat of brilliant blue to see where it needed more work.

Orange peel with orange paint. Wonder why.


great looking so far. Besides my lame joke.

[mike@af]

Excellent job! They look great.

That paint looks very nice. Do I see a red wing on a blue Modena there?? Can't be any more agressive than that!!!

It won't be red for long. The kit I stole it out of was molded in red. The whole car will be dark metallic blue over brilliant blue. I'm hoping the brilliant blue lightens the metallic paint some. (and I kinda want to see this car the same color as my Enzo, just for a little bit)

bet you stole the wing from the tamiya mitsubishi gto (3000gt)... i was planning on doing that for my skyline...

Here's a bit of progress on the Miura. This car has been trying my patience from day one. I had problems polishing it, and had to respray the whole car. I added 2 more coats of orange and 2 coats of clear. The kick panels were painted aluminum. I used Alclad II for that. The body still needs polished.

The majority of engine, exhaust, and suspension parts have also been detail painted. I was going to add some engine details, but the rear hatch doesn't open, and very little is visible through the louvers anyway.

I have not touched the interior yet. I always like to save those for last to best match the exterior. It will most like likey be tan, brown, and black.

Anyways, heres some pics
