Nope glued together then painted... WOW!! can i ask why you dont paint things separately? and can i add that if that is the way you do it, you do a tremendous job at it. i could never do that and have it as clean as you do. |

well i do understand that a lot of the motor is the same color, but you have everything on there, then manifolds are on. i'd have paint everywhere.

I use very small brushes... I guess I got used to doing this by doing figures for my diorama builds with armor, etc... to me it's easier then scraping paint off seams to glue it together, I almost always build sub assemblies and then paint... bodies of cars get painted separately before assembly though, ha, ha!!! Tanks after assembly...

never noticed the valve covers. oil filler tube(the big one) i thought always went to the drivers side. anyways,,, that masking tape vynle top looks great!! bet you used a new x-acto blade. by the way, where did you get the moroso valve covers at? i have a bunch from a friend, but they don't look like those.

Well my friend I do believe sexy Ms. Motivation went your way and left me... I just have been overwhelmed with work and winter weather over here... I don't think this is gonna happen before next December at this rate!
