So, I think I have become a bit OCD with these diecast cars from my late Brother-in-law's collection. After I had put the couple of Rusty Wallace cars back together I saw some pictures of the actual car and realized that the chassis on the cars was grey, so, I took everything back apart and changed some things. Here are some beforeand after pictures of what I have done so far. The entire chassis and exhaust was all black so I had painted the exhaust a flat steel color but later stripped it and repainted it flat aluminum. I had also painted the engine blue but the blue was very dark so I repainted that also, now it is the correct Ford blue. Anyhoo, I added a little detail to the chassis after painting it grey.
Note the round things with the holes in them is where the car is screwed to the base of the display case. The last photo was one that I used as a reference.
