Not a show rod but I wanted to share this build anyway. This is a very detailed kit and my only gripe is that all parts except chrome and clear are molded in dark brown waxy plastic. A lot of painting here folks. My take on an old but favorite kit. Fenders painted model master deep sea blue. Body painted rattle can copper. Interior is Testers primer white. a little dust here and there. I'll have to give her a good dusting.
Dashboard was painted then dry brushed to simulate wood. Faces of instrument dials dry brushed to bring out the detail.
Engine wired. Not true to life of the real car when it came to the ignition wires but I like it this way. Badges on Horn, starter, etc are from a spare decal sheet.
