                        Besides some plates it's finished!

                        Settled for some ignition wires and left it there.

                        Some new knobs here and there and a rug on the floor.

                        Painted with Belton gold covered with flat clear and yellow pearl, roof is House of Kolors Tangerine candy on the gold base.






                        ...and now on to something else.

                        What did you do to detail the speedometer? PE or did you brush the white on?

                        Hi!

                        It's done with Baremetal foil and some grey paint. First foil, then paint and with a tiny chisel shaped toothpick dipped in some thinner it's just to slowly work the paint away from the raised details.

                        Nothing fancy but a very easy trick to get it done. Oh, by the way! I did mask of the meters before painting so I didn't drown the details in paint.
