Well, let's go ahead and start yet another project! This one should be a weekend build though. It's pretty simple. Here's the start: This is just after putting the third coat of Burgundy metallic on it. ![]() ![]()

Stephen, I was just looking over this one again. I really like the paint job you did. Very, very nice. The slicks will be a wild touch to it. And if you have a set, think about adding some traction bars to it as well. Oh yeah, are you going to add the kit decals to it? Those red stripes ought to look good on that paint. Dave rlr 3rr |

Thanks Dave. I'm really happy with the paint. I still have to put one more clear coat on. Then probably one more after the decals are applied, for a total of four coats of clear. I'm sure I have some traction bars somewhere. As for decals, this is the "Donk" kit, so it doesn't have the stock decals. If anyone has a set they can spare, I'm willing to trade something for them. If not, I have a set of white and a set of black SS stripes from a Chevelle that look like they may work. I think the white would look good, if they'd fit. |
