Matt's model car thread....is back!! Reply #19 – November 08, 2009, 01:23:48 PM A lot of cool stuff y'all got there!I have a pair of Saleen S-351 kits...one, i botched the paint up, so the engine and wheels etc got used for the "saleen truck" i'm still working on...I too was going for a fade type paint job, only from orange to yellow...the other one, I'm still undecided.my problem is I just can't stay focused on a model long enough to make any noticeable progress. The truck I mentioned? It took me about 4 hours to set "lower" it, set the brakes and wheels to it, and mock it all up, and I literally haven't touched it since, and that was probably 2 years or more ago. lol Quote Selected
