Nice work cook_dw and 427TJ!
I always used a clean cardboard box/cover that I gently placed over the freshly painted body to minimize dust in the paint as it dried. Worked pretty good! Some builders are at another level and have amazing paint results- wet sanding, buffing, etc. Last edited by Lemans69; 03-26-2020 at 07:20 PM. |

I posted this a few years ago, but didn't disclose that it was a model at first. Had a few guys going for just a bit. Consensus was that I was an A$$ for posting.
I still have it. https://www.yenko.net/forum/showthre...w+motor+locked

I had this one as a kid. Also had the Richard Petty model. One day I took the instamatic camera and the two cars outside and simulated a crash/fire with the two cars.
I still do have the pics somewhere to prove it

He didn't ask to buy it. He asked if he could HAVE it; so... no.

I have a model of the Don Garlit's rear engine dragster that I never got around to building. Good for the model because like all my other builds I probably would have blown it up with fire crackers.

I built almost all of those MPC stock car kits back in the mid '70s starting with the 21 Mercury Purolator Cyclone. They had the same frames and cages, I think.

Here's one from about 1972-73 when I was ten-eleven. I was a Shelby GT350 nut and the only Mustang fastback I could get my hands on was the old Aurora 32nd scale kit. I used wheels and decals from the IMC Torino Cobra kit and side scoops from an incomplete AMT '68 GT500 grafted on with household spackling paste! I mixed the blue and did my best to tape the lines with regular masking tape. Can't remember where I got the hood scoop. It had been in storage (with all of my old builds) for over 30 years until 2015.
