Wow, it looks better than the old one but wich one is new..... seems like the one without the headlight assembled is different red to the other wich has more yellow in it.... (it´s more to orange, but also warm red)
So.... they both look perfect..... why a different paint? Can´t the guys here give you a RAL number for the exact Viperpaint? |

You're right Arjen, the first paint is a red bright TS-49 (more orange than red) and the real GTS "model-car" is more red,so I used the TS-8 Italian Red (all Tamiya) and look-like than the real....
For the strippes,I used clear grey metal TS-17 with varnish TS-13 on the body.... ![]() |

Yes Mike,don't worry and be happy
![]() here you have some news this morning of what happened : I worked in your GTS during 20 hours on the body (it's not finish),I bought all the bombs for the new paint,but I must make a choise for one of the two grey colors to have a great combo with the blue stripes (racing blue métal)...all the tins, bombs and sandpapers are the complement for her.... Pictures -this morning-: ![]() ![]() And I found (last week) THE exact set of wheels (the most important and long search) to realy start your project,because I can't choise some others for your GTS. ![]() ![]() I must work on them to up some new tyres (Michelin) with the good size (here they are to hight and was some Bridgestone )Here you have the last news of your project Mike,I know it's to long for you but I don't want a bad GTS... About the engine,my choise for the parts is right and a serious work will be to up them. Chris. ![]() Last edited by le66; 07-28-2008 at 01:48 AM. Reason: pics |
