Ford Touring – part 2

I gave the body parts a clear cote but forgot that the decals should have been added.

I think the clear cote looks very nice! Sadly the decals didn’t even come off the sheet, so I had to skip them.

I started with the interior, painted the gas tanks with chrome and a few parts on the other side.

I polished some flaws and gave it one more clear cote.

Nice and shiny! Still some dust and other small flaws which I sorted later.

The interior got the second colour. I opted to go for the same colour I’d used on the Ferrari.
After painting I noticed a few small ejection marks that I filled with sprue glue.

The cabriolet roof was painted in a kind of beige colour.

Some details was painted black and then some in aluminium, and I also painted the bottom of the tub blue to match the rest of the car as parts are visible underneath.

The rear ends of the exhausts and the air filter was painted with chrome.

Just to see how it would look, I polished the hood.

I had already started the frame, and now I finished it. I had to change the order a bit to make it work.

I then polished the rest of the car.

I’m quite happy with how nice it turned out!

Time to start the rest of the assembly. Wheels went on and then the frame and lower body was mated. I also assembled the rest of the engine and then the radiator.

Just a few details missing, then it’s time to put interior and the rest of the body in place.
