Nice!
Are those Powerslide decals? If so they fit great.

They are. I knew there was the difference between 1/24 and 1/25 but they did great. You can see the hood is slightly different and I had to do some trimming on the roof and pillars but overall I was pleased. Lots of solvent haha

Very nice. I bought three sets of decals from Mike when the came out, as well as three COTs from Ollie's back when they were $9 or so. Stripped them and promptly chickened out trying to get all those decals to lay flat. I also wasn't satisfied with the paint options I could find. You did fantastic on each of those concerns. Great work.

Thanks brother. No comparison with your Martin builds though. I sprayed Rustoleum fluorescent yellow at first and it was a disaster, settled for krylon and it worked well. The decals were the most time consuming I'd ever done. Tons of solvent but it wasn't impossible. Guarantee you could do it!

Thanks. Ended up with Krylon fluorescent yellow from Walmart over Tamiya white primer. Matches decals pretty darn well

Coming along. Waiting on decals for small details and interior. May run some hoses and wiring as well.  |

.080 Evergreen rod. Matches pretty close to either kit bars or diecast bars. It looks great so far. I have never had any luck with the flo. paints.
