Looking great! I recently tried one of these Molotow pens for the first time and was very impressed.

[Ace-Garageguy]

Everything looks great. I'd certainly be satisfied with your results, and I'm a nasty, picky SOB.

A few more little things to do before I can re-gloss. I think it turned out okay.

If you mean to shoot more clear over what you have and the Molotow...you might want to rethink that.

You are correct Sir.  I meant to type, clean up any tape residue and carefully re-polish any areas that may have any finger smudges.

Excellent progress, nice clean work!

The foil work looks really nice Steve.  It's going to be Super sharp once the assembly starts. 

[Jonathan]

Wow!  That is a beautiful color!  Nice work so far!

Yep awesome paint, nice neat foil work.

The Molotow - I gather you sprayed it (like from the refill bottle), and didn't use the pens?   It looks great.

[drodg]

This looks great.  Two questions did you spray the Molotow and which kit is this?

Hi David. The Molowtow chrome is sprayed at 15-20 psi. over Mr color GX 100  Super clear III using the Iwata sbs side feed. When your spraying it, make sure to spray a little heavy so it will turn chrome instantly. Sometime you will get a slight fogging, so watch for that. It cleans up with regular lacquer thinner from Menard's. Do not try to thin it, I haven't tried so I wouldn't be able to tell you either way. The kit is the AMT 1/25th 57 Bel Air Street Machine box # 8319.

Yes Sir, that is correct. But I have to wait 3 days for it to really cure up maybe even a week, but Its worth the wait.

Amazing paint and beautifully executed trim!

Thank you

Beautiful!

[Butter 1]

Nicely done. I will have to try Molotov. Looks really good.

[TransAmMike]

And I will compliment you again Steve...The side trim and rockers look great.  Wow!!

[wisco8]

Exhaust pipes to engine manifolds test fit looks excellent. I kind of had to weave the pipes through. At first I thought I messed up, but it does fit pretty nice. I test fitted before I painted the pipes.

[beeRS]

Stunning work there ??. The paint work and the chrome is amazing. 

[David G.]

Nice metal looking finish on those pipes!

[Zippi]

Looking really sharp Steve.  

[wisco8]

Engine work with wires added. I'm wondering if there are any aftermarket resin engines with more details? I guess for now it will be okay.

[David G.]

Nice detail and wiring on the engine Steve.

I think it looks fine, maybe a light blackwash would help bring out what detail is there.
