hedotwo Posted September 18 Share Posted September 18 Finished up this Decko resin Cad finally. I'll start by saying it was a great build as the parts fit beautifully and the body required almost no prep other than the usual resin cleaning. I added a vinyl top and while I'm ok with the end result, I wouldn't do another top in this way. I used a rougher texture spray to start with and did alot of sanding to take it down to what I thought would be a decent look. But it's still too heavy and the seam strips are still too heavy as well. Otherwise, I used Scalefinishes 1969 Cadillac Palmetto Green and Tamiya's TS-7 Racing White for the interior and the top. Thanks for looking! 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radretireddad Posted September 18 Share Posted September 18 That’s my favorite sixties American road sofa. The first thing I remembered when I saw your build was the scent of the red leather interior we had in ours. Great build. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zippi Posted September 19 Share Posted September 19 Your 69 Caddy turned out pretty nice Rich. The green looks nice and so does the white top. The white wall tires give it that extra pop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
