Name: Scott Inman Scott’s Scaled Builds
Location: Spartanburg SC
Brand name of kit: Hasegawa

The paint is Mitsubishi Lightning Yellow and a custom mix Pearl White from Splash Paints topped off with Vallejo Colors Matte Clear Coat.

The weathering was done using several different methods….Salt, sanding, sponge, brush, and streaking fluids. All of the rust was made using Splash Paints red oxide primer, various Vallejo acrylic rust colors, and AK rust streaking fluids.

The interior was painted using Splash Paints Pure White. Highlight Model Studios door panels, Highlight Model Studios Mooneyes pedals, Scale Motorsport Euro Plaid decals, and various scale boxes were used throughout. A pair of dice was also a must hanging from the rear view mirror as well.

The exterior received Highlight Model Studios Safari Windows, headlight visors, windshield wipers, tags/tag bracket, and Mooneyes bumper plaques.

The antenna was made using a smaller colored ball sewing pin.

I chose to use some of the kit decals, and I also ordered some custom Mooneyes shop logos for the doors to give it that shop truck look.

To complete the 70s Cali look that I was going for, I used a 3d printed roof rack sprayed in Splash Paints Hyper silver, and Tamiya Deck Brown. I then topped it off with a surf board from a random Aoshima kit, which is held on by straps made from 3mm ribbon, and some PE buckles from a racing harness kit.

The wheels were 3D printed by myself, and designed by Slowlys Models. They are topped using the kit supplied metal Moon Disc caps. I wanted some pop to them, so I wet sanded and polished them. RB Motion valve stems are used as well. They are finished in Splash Paints custom mix pearl white, and the tires are rubber black.
