I noticed those cherry bombs too. The mufflers of choice in my neck of the woods were Thrush.

I wasn't too sure about that gold paint job, but seeing it near completion changes my mind. Looks really nice. Is that a cream colored interior?

What kind of clear did you shoot? By the way, that color looks terrific!

Thanks guys. The interior is Beige Steve. One of the guys in our club gave me a little bit of this paint for interiors. It is a lacquer that he uses at work.
David, I used Testors one coat clear on it. I'm not really impressed with this clear though. I think it's because I'm not very good at using spray cans in my painting. The stuff comes out to heavy for me. I like using an air brush and most of the time, I decant the paint and spray thru the air brush.

Well, the beige goes with the gold really well. They compliment one another. Nice choice!

I'm right there with you on the rattle can Testor's Clear Dan. It comes out like it's coming out of a garden hose! The 1/2 ounce bottle of Testor's Model Master High Gloss Clear is good for air brushing (cut 2:1 with lacquer thinner) but the Testor's rattle nozzles are just too generous for me. I am really digging your little Hot Rod here!
