Looks great dude! If you’re happy with it, nothing else matters!!

Great job on the two-tone. You say it may not win any awards but building and painting it is an award unto itself.

This came out marvelous Bro... Keep up the great work and peace Marc

Great job indeed. You can also use mod podge gloss for windows. Pledge floor gloss is great for the windows and the whole body too gives a great shine

Turned out sweet Mike, I use Micro Kristal Klear by Microscale, it's a white glue similar to Elmer's but dries faster, no more glue on glass issues, :) Tom

Sounds great. The clear Elmers glue is working pretty good so I'll probably keep using it for awhile. Thanks for the tip.

looking good sir

Funny , that the upper radiator hose is going into the distributor location and some how the distributor made it's way to back

Who cares about awards to my eyes you got a winner

The distributor is on the wrong side. It's supposed to be in the front of the air cleaner. That why you had a problem putting on the body. Nice build though 👌👍

Great job,Mike.Question....did you wait for the paint to dry before you took the tape off ?

@mikelozanoscustommodelshop8756

Yes I did but I think my technique is a bit off. Still learning!

@charlie418791

Do not let your paint dry before you pull off the tape.Pull the tape off right away, or as soon as possible.This should cut down on some of your tape problems.By letting the paint dry first and then pulling tape,the paint is now dry and there's more of a chance of lifting off paint.Also,always paint your light color,first.It's easier to cover a light color than it is a dark one.You must be reading my mind.I've been wanting to do a brown/tan paint job.Next truck. Great work.👍

Nice work man, I like the paint combo bro, the interior looks nice, and the engine looks good, but the wiring is out of scale, but looks good though...

Thank you Mike, you're a great builder, I see a lot of potential on your builds, just need to look for new stuff and improve your self on every build, trust me, I'm not even closet of what I wanted to be building model speaking...

very nice seen that kit before would you recommend it?

I ain't trying to nitpick you brother but it's a Ford in your distributor should be in the front of the motor that's Words Factory made that would have helped you with your wiring problem
