:eek: :eek: :eek: Rustzilla has returned to wreak mayham upon us all!!!!
Did the shine from the pollished paint hurt your eyes?HEHEHE:D
So you have returned to that "VOODO THAT YOU DO WELL"
And a mighty nice job if I say so myself.

Dennis beware Chris in K-patch has removed a scale 12" from a
motor:eek:

Killer! Are you using, or have you tried that "instant rust" stuff? My dirty old '62 Jeep PU will be my first try w/it on the frame/underside.

I got the welds highlighted then weathered down some! I cut the wood planks, I think I am going to cover them in BMF aluminum??? Have not decided on a motor yet!!! Still too early! Next I will weather the doors and start on the interior! That is all for now! Hey BOB, the weathering stuff is a kit from Michaels, and yes it is instant. The more you put on, the worse it gets! I put one more coat on last night, and now it has a blue color to it!!!! This sh8t is awesome stuff...................

Cool; that's exactly how I want my chassis to be weathered :)

Neat model, it's fun building stuff that you don't have to polish out :D :cool:

Is your tetanus shot up to date? I'd hate to hear about you getting lockjaw from working on a model car. :)

It's good too see you picking this car back up. The rust is phenominal. I look forward to seeing what all you add to this killer ride.

That is one bad hot rod. Now will it be leaking oil all over the table in November?

Leaking? It's not British!
