Wow, very cool.

I usually don't like US-cars that much, but this one really impresses me.
The engine bay is just perfect, the paint job is absolutely well done, everything seems to be shiny.
Definitely one of the best scale model cars I've ever seen.

Great job!

Did you use Bare Metal Foil for the Chrome-areas?

Thank you guys! Bare Metal Foil was used only around the doors and rear/front windows. Side mouldings are the kit's chrome.

Hi Cruz.

A cool thing you've built. :ok:

The Color is exactly my thing. Two-tone paint beautiful ..
Have you used car color?
OK, the wheels are a matter of taste, I would have mounted the original. But it's your thing

The engine has a lot of detail.

Best regards

Peter

Thanks Peter! The paint is just Testor's enamel flat red and Testor's lacquer for the clear. The roof was painted with Tamiya Pearl White and also cleared with the Testor's lacquer. :thumbsup:
