Bucket T Posted January 5, 2018 Posted January 5, 2018 Lucky for me, I didn't use much glue on this kit when I first built it as a kid. Changed up a few things. Replaced the wide rear tires with smaller ones like the fronts. Not a fan of luggage racks so I left it off. Added side skirts to cover up the seam where the body meets the frame, much like the 1:1. The 1:1 also had 5 spoke rims so I covered up the baby moons. Paint is Testor's one-coat White Lightning. Decals came from the Bird of Paradise t-bird kit.

Snake45 Posted January 9, 2018 Posted January 9, 2018 Nice! That White Lightning pearl came out great. I've been wanting to try that on something for a while now--I just need to find the right project for it.
