The others are from a vendor that I found once I made the decision to go with the skinnies. No worries though. I'll find a use for the other two that you sent me. Thanks a million Dale. |

Thanks a lot fellas.
I shot the gloss coat on this morning and I really couldn't be happier about the outcome. I used MM "Wet Look" gloss coat and it'll dry like this. You can see the chameleon like effect on the lower parts of the body going from green to blue to purple. Now for the week long cure out...................

Les: Thanks buddy. I'm going to have to get back with you on those bumpers. It wont be this year but I'll be jumping back on that build.
Ken: LOL. Thank you as well.
I'll be out of town till late Sunday which'll be perfect so the paint can cure out over the weekend. |

Thanks Dennis and Martin. It comes in Model Master aeresol form only. Make sure to dispense it , let up air out to get all the air bubbles out of it and shoot it through an external mix AB like a Badger 350 or similar. It'll turn out great every time.

Man thanks Steve. I can't wait to get back home and continue with the build. It'd be nice to have this one finished by the end of the month for the show in Houston but I'm not crossing my fingers. Lol. I know me, it'll be another two months till I wrap it all up probably. 😕

Back on this one again guys. I've got the alternator wiring harness and throttle return spring installed this morning. I've also been working on the heater hoses and retaining clamps for those.
