This was a huge year for me. \u00a0I finished a lot of long running projects as well as new projects. I painted hood pins on any model that had them. \u00a0Painted white lettering on tires for the first time. \u00a0To freshen up my ’69 Superbee kit, I painted wheels and tires as well as repainted the engine and ran new plug wires. I freshened the MKIII Supra by detail painting wheels and respraying all black molding. \u00a0I also repainted tail lights and side markers. After years of neglect, I finally painted an air cleaner for 70 cuda. \u00a0I also added aluminum tail pipes for FC3S RX7. \u00a0Not to be left out, I resprayed window trim on the S14 240 as well as black washed wheels, added aluminum tubes for exhaust tips and tinted windows. Finally, the Datsun 510 received an aluminum tail pipe.<\/p>\n

This was the biggest year I’ve ever had having finished ten kits. \u00a0I did get a little burned out but I’m definitely enjoying the new finished models.<\/p>\n
