WOW and WOW , amazing work on both cars. You are both highly skilled modelers. The fine attention to detail , fit and finish are a joy to look at. These are both contest quality builds. It would be great to see a build sequence and technique demonstration on these cars.

Thanks for showing

I agree wholeheartedly with Ralph--either or both of you two ought to post s tutorial on your methods you use--your cars are beyond criticism; they're THAT GOOD!

Amazing work, and the finishes are simply perfect!

Thanks for the great build link , it's very informative and the photos are very well done. I really like the classics built as stock. 

Thanks for taking the time to show your fine work.

That is just gourgeous!

I gave one to my father some years ago with white pearl on it too but it's a convertible.

 

I think your colour combo really sets it off, very consistent taking it up both under the bonnet and the interior. Very sharp!

 

 

Thank's for sharing.

If you go to Michael's or any Arts and Crafts store you should be able to obtain it...
