thought I would post a few pictures of a SCX Morgan Aero 8 that I repainted. Now I always liked this car, its uniquely vintage look stands out on a GT grid. only problem was the paint schemes were, in my opinion, butt ugly, well I guess the dewalt power tools one was ok ,but it did nothing for me.
After coming across one on epay, at a good price, I picked it up.
I did the standard soak in alcohol, strip it , wash it dry it, routine . Then a coat of white primer, then came the yellow, 2 light coats, then holding the red spray can about 2 and half to 3 feet away from the body, I made multiple light passes from above the body until I was happy with the look. Some water slide decals and future wax finished it up.
The chassis I left stock, did some tuning,{ we race a digital wood track no mags} , and swapped out the plastic wheels for some aluminum, { pronounced- AL- lo-minum :P } rims . In short a pretty good runner that can keep up with the Carreras and Flys we race.
Thanks for looking
John
