Hot Wheels
"BLACK METALFLAKE"
VW DRAG BUS!!!!
This is a 1/64 scale casting.

I can't stress this enough, these pics
ABSOLUTELY do not do this KILLER piece justice!!
It is almost impossible to capture the incredible sparkle of the MetalFlake in a still picture....TRUST ME....IT SHINES!!!!!



This is a color that is not done too often because of the work that it takes to make it smooth after the large flakes are applied, but, it really looks great....and if you saw this one at the Irvine show, I think you will agree...if not....well, just wait until you are holding it in your hand!!!!!!!!


This "MACE" Chassis is pretty much stock other than chromed rear wheels and those White Letter tires and front Pro Circuit 5 spoke wheels
are VERY COOL!!!!


The paint is ALL AIRBRUSHED (as with all my kustoms) PPG and House Of Color AUTOMOTIVE paint, plus, Alclad Chrome lacquer and Createx Auto Air for the Flakes.

I started with a super smooth automotive grade primer and this was sanded and reprimed twice!! Then I used Createx Auto Air black base and followed this with their Hot Rod Sparkle Metal Flake!!

Finally, Clear was shot on in SEVEN coats...sanding with 1500 grit two times in the process to get the metalflake even with the surface....which makes the finish WAY SMOOTH!!!!
This is INCREDIBLY KOOL!!
