moparfarmer Posted December 16, 2017 Posted December 16, 2017 Here is a photo of my 62 Chev Bel-Air 2 dr ht..It was the last model I painted and finished 18 years ago before I had my slump..Painted 63 Chevrolet Autumn Gold(airbrush,clear out of rattle can) Wetsanded and polished with Meguiar's Cleaner then finished off with Meguiar's Gold Class paste..I figure this is one of my best..It was a fun kit and one of AMT's better issues(blue on box) Let me know the faults..Thank you...

moparfarmer Posted December 16, 2017 Author Posted December 16, 2017 Here is my 70 Road Runner I just finished up tonight..Fought me all the way on final assembly. Nothing fit after interior installed but its okay for a shelf model..Not going to win any contests with this but its built box stock so I don't intend on entering it in any contests..Second one finished in 18 years and getting better but lots of improvements..Got to get a thicker wire for the rad hose, lost during construction..Lacquer Duplicolor Perfect Match with clear polished with Meguiar's Scratch X 2.0 and finished with Meguiar's Gold Class Paste..Fun build till final assembly but glad and pleased its done..

Classicgas Posted December 16, 2017 Posted December 16, 2017 Very nice, Better shot of engine and chassis please. Quote
Mr mopar Posted December 16, 2017 Posted December 16, 2017 I like the plane jane Roadrunner ............. nice work ! Quote
Snake45 Posted December 16, 2017 Posted December 16, 2017 Very nice work indeed. Great color and finish. Surprised to read you had so much trouble with it. I built the GTX many years ago and remember it as one of the smoothest, most trouble-free builds I've ever done, along with the Superbird. Quote
shoopdog Posted December 16, 2017 Posted December 16, 2017 Turned out great, good color choice. Quote
espo Posted December 16, 2017 Posted December 16, 2017 Looks very nice and a great color choice. You mentioned you wouldn't put it in a OOB show, I don't know why not. Quote
Hmann68 Posted December 16, 2017 Posted December 16, 2017 Beautiful! The paint work looks great and I like the color choice! I've entered a handful of shows and didn't care if I won or not, just wanted to show my cars and enjoy everyone else's work, so go ahead and take it! Quote
Mike Chernecki Posted December 17, 2017 Posted December 17, 2017 Wayne, looks good. Reminds me of your old Roadrunner. Quote
DumpyDan Posted December 17, 2017 Posted December 17, 2017 Real nice looking Wayne, great color Quote

I did the GTX and Bird also..Might have something to do with the separate sided interior..The tub one fit well and chassis well but not this one..Also found that the wheel backs didn't fit into the tires flush like the others..Too late now, its all buttoned up and going on the shelf..Nice shelf car looking through the glass..LOL Quote
Lunajammer Posted December 17, 2017 Posted December 17, 2017 I don't know Wayne, looks pretty good to me. Beautiful paint. BMF looks super crisp. Quote
El Caballo Posted December 17, 2017 Posted December 17, 2017 Great paint job, the right color, too. Quote
