Rob Moroso's Olds

[IJ001]

AMT's 1988/90 Olds Cutlass - Assembled & painted the internals about a month ago, then went back to the UK for a visit for a couple of weeks. First couple of sessions at the bench and I've started on the 'colouring in'. Tamiya TS-26 Glossy white straight from the rattle-can and my own mix of Tamiya acrylics for the blue. Will leave it for around 48hrs to cure before masking and adding the red.

Please feel free to ask any questions or make any suggestions.

 

 

Cheers from NZ.

Looks great to me. I've always liked that version of the Olds Cutlass.

Nice clean work. I was at Rob's last race at NWB Speedway. Sad ending to a life. Thx

Main paint done, sealed under just one medium coat of Tamiya LP-09 clear. Decals will wait for around 48hrs, to let the clear cure.

Looking very good.

Looks good!  I have never seen this car built before.  I agree with Volzfan, those Olds are good looking!

Hey folks...

Well sadly the decals reacted violently with the lacquer clear (not 2K) and that was that - I stripped the paintwork using Mr Muscle oven cleaner (it needs another couple of goes) so now I'm going to go with 'Plan B' - the Buddy Baker Red Baron Pizza car...

 

Cheers & HNY.

I feel your pain!  At least all your hard work on the chassis was not in vain.  I look forward to seeing plan B, the Red Baron cars were always lookers.
