Dale Gribble Posted October 14, 2020 Posted October 14, 2020 On to the next one ..... pulled this out of the stack .... cleaned up the mold lines , assembled the chassis in prep for black ...
Brizio Posted October 14, 2020 Posted October 14, 2020 Nice start! I build one few years ago, they are a lot of fun!
Dale Gribble Posted October 17, 2020 Author Posted October 17, 2020 Decals going on .... the microsol is having no effect on them at all . Having a bit of a time getting them to settle down around the seams and locks tightly .
Brizio Posted October 17, 2020 Posted October 17, 2020 Love it! Decals looks good! Where the decals have issues to settle down, you can cut them. And then press on the seams with a wet cotton swabs. THe few times I had this issue with decals I used a tapered tip cotton swabs.
shoopdog Posted October 17, 2020 Posted October 17, 2020 Looking very sharp, that's a lot of decals! Currently finishing up the AMT 77 Ford Cruising van, decals were a pain, not happy with my results.
Can-Con Posted October 17, 2020 Posted October 17, 2020 Really like'n the color Dale. If you had the decals, you could replicate the "Convoy Van" version. It's body was molded in that same color plastic.
Dale Gribble Posted October 18, 2020 Author Posted October 18, 2020 Working on the interior while I wait for the decals to fully dry . The Axalta clear doesn’t like moisture ....
Dale Gribble Posted October 20, 2020 Author Posted October 20, 2020 Axalta gets the clear on point ! Nothing like real automotive products to get that real automotive finish !!
OldNYJim Posted October 20, 2020 Posted October 20, 2020 Oh wow, I love the look of that! WAY cool!! ???
junkyardjeff Posted November 5, 2020 Posted November 5, 2020 I built one around 1977 and should still have it,yours might give me the motivation to restore it.
