Can't get past red x's...I suck

Next up is Gloss Bright Red on an MEV Corvair that was white and Dark Blue on a Ford Thunderbolt that I got from one of the Mead Bros. on eBay. These are real nice and come with the hood and side decals.

And last but not least a Super Modified comprised of an original Aurora hot rod body painted Black Pearl with Dash gold accents. I'm real happy with the way this one turned out.

As you should be Hojoe. Kick'n 'em old-school is BIGTIME fun. Nice stuff and thanks for posting.

Now... How about some more member pics?... Or do I have post more cat and taping compound bucket pictures?? :devil:

I play it a bit safer and gradually troll my cans under the hot water in the utility sink so I can regulate the temperature.

Really doesnt take much warmth to get things optimum for spraying. The metal can transfers heat quickly. If ya give it a shake occassionally you can actually feel the viscosity change as you warm the can.

If it's too warm to touch it's overkill in my book...cuz i'm chicken.;)


That's how I've been doing it and as you stated, it doesn't take too long and you can feel the content change as you roll the can under the H20. :) rr

Now... How about some more member pics?... Or do I have to post more cat pictures?? :devil:

A jar of stripping solution on the work bench is mandatory!!! Here's an old spray can vette. Testor's yellow and red with clear on top. This T-Jet rides on a Tyco narrow 440 chassis. Should put this one in the yellow thread maybe...??? RM

Nice one!:thumbsup:

Did you mask the black pinstripe or is it a decal / tape job?

Thin tape Doba, with lots of clear.

Hilltop,

Nice Vette with a 2 color paint job and smooth stripes. Talking about stripes Randy. I just noticed you even put this beauty on the yellow stripe lane for pics. Now I need to go back and check out all your other pics also. Hmmmmmm

You many have High-Yellow- Mobo- Letus and a case of Delurky. :) Don't worry it is painless and there is no cure....wheeeeew! LOL

Keep up the good work man, Bob...zilla

HT,

dang!! another well done job!! how do you get that tjet body to fit on narrow chassis? maybe i should start buying tjet bodies and have them mount on tyco narrow chassis! :)

Wes

Wes, The body almost fits without help. I cut away one side of the rear post for the back of the chassis to rest against and to get it lowered. I added a small lip on the very bottom of the inside doors for the chassis to snap over. The rear door rides on top of the chassis side. The front post is cut down so that the chassis rides aginst it. So the body actually snaps on. You digging deep Bob!!! The yellow lane was accidental, but I like the way you think!!! ...RM
P.S. Thanks for the comments guys!!!

awesome pictures of tyco chassis. just one more question what do you mean you add a lip? just curious.

thanks
wes

Hey Wes, The lip is just a small piece of plastic I glued in. As you slide the body over the Tyco chassis, the lip will slide over the double L area and kinda snap on. The lip just keep the body from sliding off the chassis. So if the body is resting on the chassis at the front guide post area and at the rear door area, the lip acts as a clip to hold the body and chassis together. I'm sure there are better methods for mounting, but this one just worked for me. Hope this helps... RM
