alan barton Posted June 6, 2020 Share Posted June 6, 2020 I see a fair bit of Iron Trap Garage going on there! I particularly like the rust stains on the paint. i don't think I've ever seen anyone attempt a bent grille before! Cheers Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a rebuild & the person who built it before me used so much glue it warped it. It seemed to work out for me on though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
espo Posted June 6, 2020 Share Posted June 6, 2020 Great looking job on the distressing of this one. You need to stop parking your models out in the field like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Geiger Posted June 6, 2020 Share Posted June 6, 2020 (edited) Very cool! Was it painted that light blue before you touched it? This one, which I immediately thought of when I saw yours, was a junker in this same blue. I couldn’t find a Testors spray that matched but there was a flat blue bottle that I used for my touch up work.

It's a $1.00 spray can from Ollies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Darby Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 Cool build, even the tires look weathered. I like the Y block, and the crossover pipe feeding into the single stock exhaust. I see also that you used an original (or pre 1970's issue) coupe body. The rear window opening on those is much nicer than the newer ones.
