This was the great paint experiment. I painted it with chrome silver and then tried to clear coat it with Testors Gloss Coat. It washed the paint partially off and dulled the finish. I stripped it with DOT3 brake fluid and then repainted it in the chrome silver. Not quite what I was looking for. Today I ordered the 1978 Corvette Pace Car from Revell. My plan is to paint it steel on the top and aluminum on the bottom and then hopefully get a good Gloss Coat on it. Another learning experience. Es-haq and Ivo, I am glad you like it. My wife had one just like it back in the day and I tried to do this one the way she remembered her car.
