Cotton Owens 61 Pontiac “Dirt” version
Posted by Murphy's Law on Tuesday, April 3, 2018 5:08 PM

Cotton has to be in my personal top 5 list. His shop was about 30 miles up the road and I remembering seeing him every Saturday night back in the 90’s at Cherokee speedway with his 3 grandsons who raced 4cyl there. I like to think this is the look after a race at Spartanburg fairgrounds back in the day.  The kit is the Moebius Joe Weatherly version with Powerslide decals. Hope you enjoy looking.

Very cool!  How do you do the chrome around the windows?  Looks perfect.

Thanks,

John

That's a very nice build. It looks real in the photos.

 Modeling is an excuse to buy books.

Thanks guys... Keavdog I used bare metal foil on the front and rear glass and a Molotow chrome pen on the quarter glass. If you haven’t already got one get one of those pens. They are great for small trim work and touching up chrome pieces such as bumpers when you trim from the trees.
