hello,this is an old kit that i 've start since 20 years,i think rusted or olded it because chrom parts are very ugly (sorry for my english,ever a bad student!![:-^] )

That's a really kool old build,my friend!!! Never mind the chrome,just think of it as a 1:1 that sat in a garage for 30 years Looks great to my eye! ;D ;D ;D

I think old and rusted would be cool on something this size. Here is link to a builder that rusted up a 1/12 scale Camaro, it may give you some ideas on what to do to yours:

If you clean it up, it is a pretty looking car. I say maybe get the chrome re-plated?? Or Bare Metal Foil it??

I'll see what gives Alclad, painting is not very successful either, it dates from the last millennium (1988 I think). I do not want the stripped, I have two others waiting in a closet!
