Interesting paint job, Wayne. What are you using for paints?

 

[kryptosdaddy]

Very interesting paint job! Good luck, but your off to a great start.

You could do a whole series of these maybe...is there an old car called a Corsair? I'm afraid I know more about planes than cars...

Nice paint job!

Yes Jeeves there are cars named Corsair

I didn't want to post the pics directly in here, cause I did not want to hijack this thread.

MLP Post away!

Hijacking is always allowed within the topics I post!

:woohoo:

Thanks for the comments folks.

Paint is Tamiya Silver Leaf spray for the main color, and plain old Testors square bottle enamel for everything else. I used Flat red, flat yellow, and OD.

That and yards of tape.

Very nice!!

This reminds me a lot of a scheme John Force had on one of this dragsters a couple years ago

 

[agentg]

Force had that car, or one very similar, up at the Speedway a few years ago. I got a glimpse of it while handling a call nearby. Good stuff there.

Here's where I am as of today:

Gloss coat.

Interior base coat. It will be something akin to OD and Neutral Gray.

Today was perfect for painting. 81 degrees, bright sun, and low humidity.

Wayne:

that is turning into one awesome looking project. And so neat going from one side of the force and going to the other side. Definitely not the dark side of the force, LOLOLOLOL!!!

Don't have any car related emoticons, but you get the point.

Looking good!

I need to start going back to the drag strip if that what John Force's crew is wearing now

I have accomplished quite a bit, just didn't have the time to post.
