3 Heavy Chevys just received, ala kiddy paint |
Lead | ||

Just recieved these 3 Heavy Chevys from epay. Ran about $6.50 each plus postage. I have no idea what they were except for the purple one. The black and silver
have the open hole wheel where the other is an old spoiler with bearing wheels. I guess rip and tear then dip, and go from there. Will try to keep pics of
progress.

Well, It was a fairly busy night at work so didn't get much time to goof off. I got the bodies stripped of paint. I had a real problem trying to
polish up the flying color cars lots of toning and marks under the paint. And one base would not shine up much at all. The spoiler cleaned up real nice. The
grills are all straightened
I put some GOJO hand cleaner and worked the windows between my fingers and noticed the paint was slowly dissolving so kept at it. Was getting really excited as the first two were in good shape but the last had a crack. So will have to replace one of them.
Now to plan, #1. The Spoiler will go traditional. The color I haven't a clue yet. #2. I visited the Redline on line guide, borrowed some pictures to show here, and figured I will get decals from Jon and go either the green or yellow on one. ![]()
#3. The second one I would like to ask Rooster if he could zinc coat the body and base for me and them just apply decals.
#4. Or the last choice is something I have seen done here by another fellow and have gone the same way as he did on another car I did but I am waiting decals for it before I show it and another one I did. I really liked what he did and tried the same thing. I hope it turns out as nice as his did I can not decide which to go green or yellow, would appreciate help in choice

Rob, the green might be a little difficult to match......the yellow is basic yellow. I like the yellow one, myself.
And would the "thing" be to make the body lift funny car style ? That would be cool ! Scott ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() G E T T I N ' M Y F I X |

Just a quick update. The Spoiler has been completed.
I had no medium wheels, still, so put a set of skinnys out front. So Here is a before of this one and the after
The other 2? one is completed but waiting decals, the other is still apart, waiting a window and decals. I actually like the stance of this one with the small skinnys out front Rob
