Hi all. Another of my repainted bodyshells.



Bobby Labontes' one race only Advair ride.







This is another paint bomb Stanton Barrett rework.







Decals are Slixx and they laid down great. Paint is a very dark pearl blue. A sale price rattlecan I just had to use.
No final gloss coat, as usual for me.

And here it is in the sun, can just see that blue tint.



Colour is Cavansite Blue from Mercedes.

This paint is much darker than the actual Bristol car, but I took a chance that it would really pop the red numbers and it's definitely worked. I do really like this build.

Hey thanks.

And here is how it looked before.



Stanton Barrett. Driver, vineyard owner and children's author. That's his Snowfrog kids book.
The builder printed his own decals way back in the 00's.
And a lot of paint he used too. A long time to strip this down ready for primer.
