This is from an Italeri kit I did about 6 years ago. Paint is Model Master Enamel Gloss Black w/ Testor's Enamel clear.

AWESOME finish on that car cruz. Black is the worst color for showing up all the flaws, dents and scratches and you nailed it. Great build too.

Very nice, probably needs some wire around the engine and will make it perfect!

The wiring on the cars of this era were hidden in a small track atop the valve covers, not many wires were exposed!!!

What a great paint job, love it. As for the fabric top, it looks like... well, a real fabric top! Was that texture molded in? If not, how did you create the effect?

Thank you my friend! Have you ever heard of Faux Fabric? Comes in a spray can and it's textured paint. There are also several spray textured paints in the market that you can try.
