painted with
3 x thin hand sprays of Tamiya Clear Red Polycarbonate paint (thanks to a great pan can racer for the paint tips - Mr Choades)
then backed with 2 x coats Tamiya White
all the stripes etc are the standard decals that come with the bodyshell.
Wanted to paint the stripes but im lousy at masking so didnt want to bother. Liked the body so much and didnt want to wreck it so have now moved it to drifter chassis, and it allways gets some looks.

have now gone to HPI Racing 68 Camaro HPI 7494 (see attached pic) and doing one for fun thats a Parma 1961 Chevy Impala Body with a Chicago Police theme. All on the Sakura Zero S chassis, they fit well :-)
