'65 Pontiac Bonneville 389 stock iris mist

Scale:
1:25
Status:
Completed
Started:
November 10, 2023
Completed:

Time spent:
24 hours

Very basic kit, especially engine bay, interior and chassis (suspension, exhaust, drive shaft molded in). Continues fitting during building process recommended. Ideal for Bare Metal Foil freaks: required a lot! Because of the much too used look of the original chrome, front grille/bumper unit and rear bumper stripped, reworked and cleaned, then airbrushed with Vallejo chrome over gloss black base coat (not really happy with the result, but...). Interior mat black/parchment. Difficult fix of grille/bumper (should have done better fitting before painting!). Airbrushed in Gravity evening orchid (Pontiac: iris mist), Duplicolor clear and polished from 3.6K to 12K, then waxed with more than 30 years old "Treatment Wax".
