This one is progressing fast and rusty furious, and in a rusty engine compartment it will totally kick a§§.

Superb mate & the addition of the plug boots on the leads is an inspired touch.

That engine could be a model in it's own right Boots. Magnificent detail.

Okly dokly..........got the AB out today and gave it the main colour..........`Portland Stone`  I know a lot of 50`s/60`s cars used a similar colour so i just adapted the Stone colour.........i wanted a very lightish base to work from as the next stages will alter this dramatically 
The `zorst` has also been done and that is where it`s going to live......eventually!!
Thanks foks |

Amazin Boots  . That is an excellent choice of colour indeed and it looks so fitting . Rather like the Ferrari Red I just used on my Fw 190 |

Early stages.........must admit i hated doing this coz the base colour came out really well A rub back with some 1800 grit micro cloth to reveal some of the red ox primer.........that i will use as a starter fro the rust stages
  
More soon hopefully with some other colours |

Oh yes I feel the pain buddy . But, with that you have made a bloody good starting point for the decomposing state |

Cheers mucker As mentioned i`m gonna throw in some colour on a couple of replacement panels it`s had during it`s life and add a bit more interest to a mono colour.........the interior will lose a couple of front seats but gain some engine spare parts and boxes etc |
