the windsheild was painted, the body was painted also with a brush,
all in all it was a nightmare!! I had to fabricate the windsheild and other glass with acetate.
Removed the 2 existing foglamps on the grill and fabricated a new grill with
white stripes, repainted and looked for new shoes for the Lancer and here it is...
after a few days, i decided to add windsheild wipers and side mirrors upon a request
of a friend of mine and came up with this...
after a few months, i got a chance to dislpay this Lancer in a contest, unfortunately the paint
cracked due to long exposure with the halogen light which it was directly exposed to.
So i had to repaint again, this time from silver to championship white,
and replaced those ATS look-a-like wheels with some "Banana Type" wheels.
and heres the result...
together with my CM's Rally Lancer.

I really admire your work sir! Actually,it inspired me to buy a Matchbox #9 1974 Ford Escort and a CM's 1982 Lancer EX Turbo and I also wanted to detail them.
Just a couple of questions sir:
1. How did you separate the body & the under body and how did you combined them again?
2. On what brand/model did you get your wheels for the Escort & the Lancer EX?
3. What is the best spray to use and how to properly spray it (should I use primer 1st etc.)?
Thanks!
