Every restoration gets totaled first.
This body was originally intended to be white for my duo anime project, but enamel can spitting totaled take one. After frowning for a few days, I decided to strip it and repaint it as a track car. After plenty of booze, shaking, scrubbing, and finally a new attire this babe was restored better than ever.
I'll kick off with a little teaser that surprised me at a Target a few days ago and pix of the Z will follow tomorrow. And a lesson learned- NEVER paint acrylic over enamel if a glosscoat will be the finale. Had to scrape off the skirts and quickly repaint in silver since the glosscoat literally turned the acrylic into mush.

Thanks guys. I lowered the nose as well, as seen in the body tilt via side pic, because stock made it look ridiculous. It still has plenty of rim clerance, so nothing was sacrificed.
