Progress : Nissan VIP cars, President and Cima

Progress of my next pair of VIP cars.

Avant Garde Nissan President. Body is almost finished; just need to finish doing the panel lines. Color is Tamiya Pure White with a Gunze Pearl Blue clearcoat. Hard to see the color with indoor pics.

This car had a severe ride height problem. Needed to be dropped a good deal. Interior will be a white/blue combo.



Nissan Cima Type III Limited. Color is Tamiya Metallic Black. Also hard to see with indoor pics. Next step is polishing. Not sure what color to do the interior, but will probably do some shades of gray. Wheel choice undecided as well, probably either Supremes or Glanzens.

Small update. Cima chassis completed. Wheels chosen.



The interiors were complete, but after some thought, didn't like the colors, so they were stripped to be repainted soon. Going to attempt making my own wood grain decals to use in the President. I'm sure that'll slow down my progress some more.

Avant Garde President is completed. It's overcast now, so more (and better) pics when I get a chance to take them



Cima interior color scheme didn't work, so it's being stripped for another pass. Hopefully I can finish it soon. Eager to start my next VIP project.
