The
first thing to start with was to sand down the mold marks that were
excessive. |
|
The scripts were
applied BMF prior to painting. But not as seen on this pic, the BMF was
trimmed as close as possible to the script. |
|
I painted the body
metallic crimson and white. White was applied first, then followed by
crimson
with masking. After the white was applied, I wiped the high points on
the
scripts with the tip of a toothpick. |
|
Here is the body
before BMF ing the front fender. |
|
..and after BMF
applied on the front fenders. |
|
The door inners
were painted and BMF applied on handles, kickplate and loudspeaker
grille.
The grille was given a blackwash and high points wiped clean. |
|
Here is an internal
pic following the assembly of front bench and side panels. |
|
...and a view from
the front of the inner tub. |
|
The dashboard...Flat
black paint on the speedo and others, wiped off on high
points. |
|
Dash mounted in
the inner tub. |
|
Body on rolling
wheels... |
|
One last look at
the Chevrolet emblem before it is covered by the spare wheel.... |
|
I did not
like the vent windows being glued on the insides of the frames, so I
filed
off the flanges of the window and inserted the glass in the frame. |
