I did not take any "in progress" construction photos of this Cutlass.
These first three show the model is ready to paint with "SnJ Spray Metal Aluminum Paint."
I soldered three brass rods together, and inserted them into the three
holes in the wheel wells. It made an excellent handle while I
applied
the SnJ aluminum paint.

Were the tires flat on this Cutlass ? No Way in H...!!;
I kept thinking about Dave Hansen all the time I worked on the tires!
|
I have added a few digital close-up photos.

|
| I cut real close to all
my
decals, as the clear decal film sure shows up on SnJ. |

Darn it all, I must have bumped the canopy with my digital camera, as
the front end is raised up. Must go glue it back together with white glue.
The F7U-3M won 3 first place local awards, and took a 1st; at the IPMS/USA SEATTLE, WA show in 1992.
The 1/72 and 1/48 scale models look great together.
These models are another fine example of "bare metal" finishes with
"SnJ."
Happy Modeling Everyone!
