'76 FORD GRAN TORINO

[B61 MACK]

Been want to build this one for years now always missed getting one untill now and this one is in white plastic not like the stripped tomato one which is in red plastic.
As its a great day for splashing colour on i mixed up a pale blue from Tamiya Sky blue X-14 and white X-2.
I will be finishing the Tiger before this one.

Damn nice paint work again Allan hi5 good to see you enjoying the weather too.

[B61 MACK]

Got the body colour worked out just need to work on the inside colour now yes!

[sandboarder]

Reminds me of an 80s Police car in that pale blue

[B61 MACK]

Ya they had pale blue Police cars here too.
Still on inside colours.

[B61 MACK]

Bruce stop by this morning and we were talking about the colour for the inside for this one and we both agreed on a light grey would be Ok for it, so thats what I will be going with. yes!

[Luke]

Yeah grey will look good, one of the Tamiya XF- blues would work too.

[B61 MACK]

Funny you say that Luke, I had a look in Casey's this afternoon at the paint and picked up three bottles,XF-66 light grey,XF-18 medium blue,XF-23 light blue, will put a bit of colour on a plastic spoon to see which one works best.

[slowlylearning]

There's the blue and grey in Tamiya pots that I swear are the same colour

I usually take a nature book or two into the garage with me and compare the colours to the ones in the book so I know I'm not swinging in the dark

Looking sweet Al!
