Thanks Mike....I enjoyed the Bud build so i thought i better start the beer war... I forgot to add an image of the car to remind those who cannot recall it. Unfortunately the wings for the Miller decals are not chrome on the Speedline decal sheet which is a shame but they will do.

I have a set of these decals as well. Got the car about half done, the dark blue paint is giving me fits!

Thanks for the replies Chris and Mark, seeing I had everything carved up and stuck together, I took the opportunity to get a flat black base coat on.

Thanks Jim, it is slowly getting there mate.. After allowing the paint to dry for a week, I started on the decal process. I have to say for a small model this car has quite a few decals to apply. The flames on the nose cone are what intimidated me the most, so I left them till near the end. This I found out later was not a mistake but it did make it somewhat harder to get them into place. My previous experience with Speedline decals was with the Bud car and they went down well, this sheet was no different except for the silver but meant to be chrome flames which were a little fragile, this you can see on the top of the left hand side pod. I will let these dry for approx a week and then look at getting the clear on and hope it helps the colour pop.

Great job, I can't wait to see some photos taken outside. That paint will look awesome in sunlight!
