Fairlady 240ZG Police Car

Building the Hasegawa Nissan Fairlady 240ZG Police Car as a review build and am making some progress forward and some backward :smiley29: Quite a bit of detail painting to do before gluing anything. Model is a curbside kit. Nice engraving for most of the car. The body though has very light panel lines that will need to be re-scribed in as they're too shallow and a coat of paint will cause them to disappear.

First time having a problem with Testors rattle cans. Decided to go with the One Coat Lacquer "White Lightening" and it bubbled in many places like carbonation bubbles. I've never had that happen with their Lacquers before, they're usually forgiving and turn out really nice. So after it dried I sanded it off and tired good old Testors Gloss White Enamel rattle can which went on much better except 1spot on the side of car has some orange peel. Will have to wait for it to completely cure than back to sanding and try again....

This is a neat kit with good decals, rub on transfers and packed well to minimize parts scratching.

More to come.....
