looks very good! did you paint those whitewalls? i know they have not come out with them since the 1960's in the kits so i was wondering. if that is how the kit tires can look, i gotta start doing that! lol

Hi Awbcrazy,thank you for your appreciation.
Yes,these are the kit tires, they are grooved and the white line is easy to paint. When i paint whitewall or just a line i use Humbrol model paint. For this one i used Humbrol #130 Satin White.
I hope this will help you out on your next build.
If you need more info on "How-to",just PM me.
