Blue Met. base coat and white. The decals are from Rob's Modeling and I will clear it all with future when the decals have had time to dry. This was a fun build even though the body was one of the blems that David had for sale awhile back. Had to make the bottom of the front fenders and one of the rear quarters, other then that the rest was a piece of cake!! I love working with David's bodies, this is my 4th and have enjoyed everyone of them. I hope you enjoy the photos. Terry

I took small pieces of styrene and epoxied them to the body. I made sure to use plenty of epoxy so that when I shaped the bottom of the fenders I didn't run out of material to work with. Then you do the usual body filler and finishing before paint. I have no photos, wish I had taken some . You can check out the fender flares thread, what he did is close to what I've done, just mine is on the inside of the body. Hope this helps Pat. Terry

I never got a chance to drive one, nor did anyone in my family have one, but I have always loved it. I even had several TJet HO cars in many colors. I saw a picture of a fully restored convertible a few years ago. Gorgeous. There ain't no learnin' in the second kick of a mule...
