Here is my next project, I have been asked to strip and repaint a 1/8 scale Ford mustang diecast shell. It will be repainted in zero paints Candy Purple over a fine metallic silver, and will be finished with the stripes redone in silver.   Thanks Chris www.wardsmodelbuilder.comwardsmodelbuilder@outlook.com |

Body pieces have now dismantled so they are easier to work with and stripped of the original paint.   Other than a couple of little marks the metal body is in good condition so I can now move on to primer. Chris www.wardsmodelbuilder.comwardsmodelbuilder@outlook.com |

Here are all the pieces off the body that are now painted in the Candy Purple.  Still needs the clear coat to be added after a light sand. Hopefully will have the main body section fully sprayed in the next few days. Chris www.wardsmodelbuilder.comwardsmodelbuilder@outlook.com |
