Modelmikey Posted July 4, 2017 Posted July 4, 2017 I started this one a few years ago, and was boxed a few times due to paint mishasps. This is actually the 2nd body as the first one i could not strip the duplicolor automotive paint. This body was painted twice, first go aound the paint was old and just didnt go on good, sanded, and shot again. The paint job on it actually went "spiderweb" and I again thought it was ruined, but I wetsanded it to what you see. No clear, just out of the can Duplicolor. I went with the kits Type R wheels, with the outside turned down to fit Xs tuning tires. Engine detailed, and exhaust is all aluminum, i even machined the muffler. see inprogress from a few years ago
MrObsessive Posted July 4, 2017 Posted July 4, 2017 Wow!! Not necessarily my kind of car, but I LIKE it! Your engine detailing is top notch! Not always an easy task as it's a bit crowded in there!
espo Posted July 5, 2017 Posted July 5, 2017 Very clean sharp looking build. I feel much like Bill Geary in that this is not my type of build, but I also appreciate the effort on the detailing of the engine and the chassis.
iamsuperdan Posted July 5, 2017 Posted July 5, 2017 Detailing and chassis weathering is on point! And the paint looks great too!
