1970 Dodge Charger R/T

Getting excited for the Chrysler Carlisle Nationals this coming weekend so, I thought I'd get a Mopar out to paint up. Dug out one of my 70 Charger Revell kits and started applying vinyl top trim to it. Thought I would try the old spray adhesive vinyl top tip for the roof on this one. I grabbed a can of Testors Panther Pink enamel I had here in my stash and after prepping and priming the body and shot some paint. Been a while since I used any spray enamels. Didn't turn out the way I wanted it. It had some serious orange peel and looked heavy. I thought it looked a little dark for Panther Pink.

Went digging through my bottle stash and found some Testors Panther Pink and some Testors Hot Magenta. Opened them up and liked the look of the Hot Magenta. It is a lighter shade of pink. Scuffed and airbrushed the body this time. I think it looks much better this. The last picture shows the difference in the spray can Testors Panther Pink to the airbrushed Testors Hot Magenta. Both are enamels and just trying to use up some of my old stash of paints.
