 |
|
I realized half way through this project that although raced in 1966, this car was a 65. Anyhow...built with a 66 MY kit. My apologies for this error.
Based on a Revell kit
PPP decals, tires and wheels
I kept the short arm rear suspension but added dual shocks (all 4 corners)
The usual scratch building required to mock up a stock car racer
Brush painted Vallejo off-white and Future clear
Weathering of the chromed and painted metaled parts.

| Very nice build and you continue to amaze with your brush painting! You should do a how-to that shows your technique, I think there are many here that would be interested. |

Already documented in the modeling discussion tab. Look for the sticky labeled "The Brush painter Society"
