62 Buick/something you don't usually see on the track

Ok here goes. As some of you know the Buckeye Scale Auto Club has a same build night in December. Well, this year it is the 62 Buick and my first time doing this. Well, we can build them anyway we want and here is what I'm doing to mine. Now, I originally had the rear end sagging but I've changed my mind and this is how she looks now.

This is to represent what a kid would do to his daddy's Buick when dad wasn't looking.
I mixed Saphire Blue with some Black and came up with this color.

Now Jr. had a little accident at the track and had to go to the local junk yard and purchase some parts to fix the car and here is what he got fer his money.

The wheels that come in the kit are all 4 rear wheels. So, what I did was make the front wheel bearing caps and installed them on the wheels. Now they are front wheels. I also mixed the paint for the wheels. It's what I call my take on gun metal gray.

Thanks fer lookin.  Dan
