KRUZADAR Progress - Body Work

[soooperdave]

The paint I applied was a gold underbase, and Plastikote metallic red. Lotsa Krylon Crystal clear Acrylic too. The rear grille and tail light treatment is from AMT's grilles and parts and the front headlights are from the Predicta and the grill is an old grille from my parts box.
The 1 1/2 doors are actually an aditional article in Car Model are actually that, oversized and made to pivot on a straight pin that is epoxied into the body and that fits into a small tube glued to the inside of the door.

Is that one of the "Clone the past" projects for the Model Museum?

[soooperdave]

Thanks for all the encouraging comments. No this is not a "Clone the Past" project, altho when I heard about that, it did inspire me to take a shot at building it from the magazine articles available back in the 60's. I actually made too many changes to this model for it to be a clone.
