Great build Alan

Getting close to completing this one. Pics below show the body on the chassis but this was just to test the fit

Great job lovely looking car

Cheers @BeastieBoy73 Body painting completed moving onto the interior next

Looking good

Looking forward to watching and learning

Had a weekend of spraying the body firstly sanded down misty spray and first wet coats on Saturday Left till Sunday night wet sanded with 2000 grit and further wet coats added Should I wet sand again after leaving the car to dry around 24 hours, this time with 2500 grit or leave it alone ?

Chassis and engine all completed and wheels in place . Starting on the interior and body over the weekend

Finish looks good to me Nice looking car

@Sheepie I will be airbrushing the body. Last night I actually started doing smaller parts with the airbrush and I am a lot happier with the results Nice build btw

Bit more progress made. I have added some gold and silver paint to try and add interest Will had some extra coats of gold when dry

@morty_3333 thanks for the advice and comments

Nice start looking forward to watching this develop

Underneath of chassis

Started work on this kit trying to take the advice given in my last build to improve. Engine and chassis in place. Quick search on the internet showed a car with gold coloured paint on the underneath so addded that also then decided to add a few bits of gold paint to the engine block. Thanks for looking comments and advice always welcome

Great work. Really like the weathering some great touches like the broken grill.

The ready for inspection is here On to the next build hopefully a lot better finish than this one thanks to the advice on here
