Thank you to Mark of mprmprmpr for making this sheet. I have been stuffing around with colours and eventually settled for SMS School Bus Yello, for the interior I went with Insignia Red and the blue is Tamiya Pearl Blue.
I’m just getting the white base decals on at present, I’ll allow these to dry then get the main ones on.

Continued with the base decals, these are very flexible and react well to solutions.

Croikey. It'll be a dinky-dy day in Auz when this storied car gets done, mate. Good start.

As the immortal Croc Hunter, Steve Irwin, might have said: "She's a beautee. And she's ready to stroike!

And sprawled on the hood, the logo for Fosters: 'Strailian fer beer.

I going to say I’m done now with the body, time to get into the engine and chassis.
Great to see that Aussie flag on the rear fender, along with an average beer brand.

This looks great! Did you use a clear coat and if so what kind was it?

I did seal it up with 2K, rubbed it back and used the Gravity polishing system.

I’m close to wrapping this one up now. Unfortunately I missed a great model show last weekend with it, but not to worry. This one will be making its way to the actual driver Allan Grice, so I’m quite chuffed about that.
