I hate painting bodies.

I know .

And I REALLY hate when I'm spraying the red and the bottle falls off the airbrush onto the floor, breaking the lid. So now I must spend $12 on a new bottle/lid to spray future bodies I don't want to paint.

i'm sure someone would have bought you that new bottle if you painted them a body...

yeah, what he said

what air brush you using or what parts you needing? I have remnants of old airbrushes that are sitting here that show up with battery chargers when you buy 'lots'...

It's an old Testors Aztek. The lid that broke is for the 2/3oz. bottle

I have to bend up some wing wire and mount a wing yet.

Dumb question -- what are you using for wing wire? I'm working on a JRX resto and this is one of the last missing pieces.

Thanks!

K&S music wire. .062 I believe.

I never added pics of the finished car to the thread.

After the second practice run the trans was making an awful noise. Tore it apart and found the bent e-clip broke and wiped out the new black idlers I had just installed. And, i didn't bring the old ones for spares. So i had to spend some time with the 'ol x-zcto cleaning the teeth back up.

And here is an action shot.

That paint job looks great on that car. Looks natural cruising at speed in the action shot too.

That action shot looks like it could have come from a 30 year old RCCA magazine article. Your cars are so distinctively old-school and completely awesome.
