First full custom build.

Post by dahlelama »

I had an idea that I told the good Meester Soncho Panza about. Soncho liked it so he donated a black tub chassis to kick it off. Gracias Soncho.

After much sanding, filling & priming, masking, painting and clearcoat.... the base paint scheme is complete. This is gonna be cool. More to come soon..

These phone pics don't do it justice. The base white is a spectacular pearl. As this progresses I'll use a good camera for next pics.

I came up with the design but I can't take credit for laying the paint. Many thanks to Zac Shoen @ ThinAir Customs for the paint job.

That looks sweet. It's gonna be a shelter,right? If not better put a chassis protector on it. Great job on the paint..
