Started Another One - Revell Anglia

[pntastar69]

Revell Anglia. In the process of back-halving using styrene sheets. Using the rear and slicks from AMT 67 Chevelle which will need to be narrowed. This one will take a while!!!

 

[1969cuda]

Cool!

 

[pntastar69]

More progress. Shortened the rear and made room underneath for driveshaft and tunnel. Working like Ian Rouselle, figuring as I go.

Like!
A friend of mine had an Anglia many years back. Had a rat, turbo 400, and an oddball 56 Pontiac rear. His was red too.
It didn't have tires like those tho.
Your wheel selection is terrific.

Is there another way?

More progress. Engine mock-up, front suspension, and rollbar fab.

Very nice work!

when it's done, don't forget to sprinkle the Lion's dragstrip dust on it at midnight. It then turns into the real thing and you can go have some fun!

 

[Dogfather]

Where did those wheels/tires come from, kit, or aftermarket???

 

[pntastar69]

Slicks - AMT 57 Chevelle Pro Street
Wheels - AMT 57 Corvette Gasser
Front Tires - One of Revells Pro Stock Kits

Nice! Can't wait to "hear" it run
what did you use to paint the letters on the tires?

man you dont mess around, looking good did you experience any bleed thru of the red molded color thru the primer ?

 

[pntastar69]

Thx. No bleedthru after 3 coats of primer. Lay’d 3 coats of silver today.

 

[abdywgn]

have we seen pictures of your spray booth before?

 

[pntastar69]

Booth is homemade. Used the metal skin and fan from an old dehumidifier and some plywood. Cake cover from the dollar store and a couple HD filters. It does the job.

 

[abdywgn]

Very nice! Thanks for sharing. I like the cake pan idea to house the fan. I've got a 4" duct fan laying around but I think it would need to be attached to a funnel to make it effective. Do the fan blades get any paint on them or does the filter clean the air well enough?

 

[pntastar69]

We have color. Tropical Glitz Royal Teal thru Paasche air brush.

 

[pntastar69]

Test fit body to chassis after polishing/waxing body. Waiting on decals. Final assembly begins.
