Old Man with a Hat
Is that some kind of paint on the top of the pedal so it looks raw or did you metal finish it with some coating?
Next to detail the rear filler panel. Will be a challenge to detail as every grill space is painted red. If anyone knows the correct color red let me know.
They were well protected behind he chrome bezel's. And if I recall correctly this car spent most of its life parked with it's tail to the North, so not a lot of sun fading. I do also have to give credit to Novus plastic polish. I was first introduced to it when my neighbors, who worked for an instrument panel manufacture, helped me polish out the curved plastic windshield on an old 68 Silverline boat. They used the polish on their assembly line to polish out any scratches on their newly assembled Instrument panels.Holy crap those lenses look amazing! Great job, man!
Does the kit also come with buffing pads or can you use a generic one?I do also have to give credit to Novus plastic polish.
One of the pitfalls of the 67 design was so much exposed plastic. The set that are on my Monaco have been hit in a few places and badly repaired, someone sat a cigarette on the driver side one and the rest is all stress fractures. The one good thing I can say is that they still have the chromed plastic inserts which I'll be able to transfer to my part set which are in slightly better condition (i.e. never hit nor used as an ashtray).They were well protected behind he chrome bezel's.
