Well after not having internet, a camera, or house phone for 4 days. I finished this Bad boy up and took a few shots of it outside with the new camera. Mikes decals were awsome and fit perfect for it not being on a resin body. A little bit of body chopping and some krylon high gloss white mixed with some rubbing compound and polish. After applying some truck and van lacqure clear i got some orange peel on the hood and trunk decals and all. So I went over the day old clear with rubbing compound then polish and followed that with Meguires cleaner wax to put the shine and take away the orange peel. Hope you guys enjoy.

Beautiful job! I get Mike's emails on his products, but haven't bought anything from him as of yet. Was the car one of his resin kits, or did you source the body from somewhere else?
