Title: David Pearson´s Talladega
Post by: Michael F on December 01, 2017, 04:13:59 PM

This is my part for the planned 1970 World 600 at Charlotte,NC starting grid diorama.
The "Silver Fox´s" Torino Talladega.
Polar Lights chassis, AMT body, Polar lights wheels and tires, Yesterdays decals except the quarterpanel `Purolator´
The Purolator decals were custom made for me by a german decal printer.
It has no underhood details.

Unfortunately, this diorama will be never realized, but good for me, so it will stay on my shelf...

David,
i paint all my models with spraycans. For this one i used Tamiya TS spray paint.
I don´t know the exact numbers, iirc. the blue is TS 19 and the gold TS 21.
