Still working on the my OLD Nissan Calsonic Skyline… This project has been shelved for 5 years or so… Been moving with me to 3 continents in a box during this past years… Some of the bits /shell was painted 5 years back…Took some pictures to check areas of correction and possible damage during all these travels… What do you think? Can I correct the overspray / chipping and move on?
The Garage Queens 2021 ends in 3 months…
Absolutely! You’ve got a nice finish on the body, this one deserves a bit of extra attention to get it out of the Garage and on to the display shelf, keep going.
@AussieReg - Thanks for the encouragement. And the group build is the another factor that motivated me to attempt to move this to finish line. I will keep at it will post the progress…
I am calling this complete. It is really sad that all my decals have gone bad during the past 7 years of storage. Tried a few of them using various soak time, coating with clear before soaking, coating with microset, Mr.Markset… But nothing seemed to work. So decided not to decal at all…
Eight years, a long time to messing with this. So that is that. Time to open a brand new kit. No more tinkering with partial built for some time…
Took some picture. Did not even cleaned it well in a hurry to toss it in the showcase and be done with it… Feeling nostalgic though to finally complete it after 8 year… decal or no decal… Thanks for the group build which gave me some hope of finishing it. Thanks again
@Mukund - Well done getting this build finished, it’s great that you found the motivation here in GQ21 because that’s the whole idea of this annual event.
It’s a shame about the decals, I’m sure you could find an after-market set if you really wanted to go the extra mile, but you have a very nice clean street machine there on display.
Thanks for sharing your final stages here with us, hopefully you can join in with other Auto builds in the near future.
