41 WILLYS!!!!
This is a 1/64 scale casting.
These pics are pretty good, but, I can't stress this enough,
they ABSOLUTELY
do not do this paint justice!!
The
casting was stripped, sanded and polished slightly before any paint
was done. Extensive casting flaws were removed over the nose and
front fenders as well.
This casting was from the Preferred Series which features ALL chrome
base and interior! I added a RED Windshield from the "HE-MAN"
version to match all the Candy Red Accents!! Although the killer
wheels and rubber tires are the ones that came on the is car, They
were set way too far towards the inside of the body for my tastes,
so, they were removed, stock axles cut, then placed in a longer
carefully fitted length of 1/16th brass tubing!! This operation
got the wheels set out a lot further in the fenders and looks much
better in my opinion!! When the length was right, I epoxied the
new axles to the base and leveled the new setup so that all four
wheels touch the surface at the same time and they Roll rather nicely,
free of any restrictions!!!
The paint is ALL AIRBRUSHED (as with all my kustoms) PPG
and House Of Color AUTOMOTIVE paint.
PLUS!!! The Main Ingredient for Black Chrome....
Alclad Chrome Lacquer!!!!
It started with a JET BLACK base color, then after it was CLEARED
for a nice smooth surface for the Alclad Chrome lacquer!!! While
the clear was still tacky, I shot a light coat of the Alclad Chrome
on!! After this coat was dry enough to touch, I added a set of Flames!!!
This is SO INCREDIBLY KOOL that words fail to describe what your
eyes actually see in person!!! The red and blue you see in some
of the pics is a reflection of my curtains and some HW packs from
my walls!!!
Its just THAT shiny!!!!!!!
NO FREAKIN' KIDDING...... I just cant find the words to accurately
describe what this stuff does in person,
but, TRUST ME.....IT IS KILLER!!!
Features detailed black grill, blower belt and scoop, exhaust pipe
tips, wheelie bar tires and midsection, plus, inner portions of
the chassis!!!! Then there are Candy Red accents on the chutes and
blower!!!
