| description | After having been to a few beaches, Italy, Netherlands (see my vid) and Germany it was about time to fully restore this legendary evergreen.... Actually, I've had finished this resto (only body so far) around Jan09 and took me a time period of about 2 months. Now, here are my 'studio pictures'. Some of the stickers I used are smaller than from the org. decal (e.g. the yello Pennzoil), but on purpose. And for the (orig.) rear view mirrors it was worth to spent the money on (no comment on the amount...) - Anyway, one of the things with the Sand Scorcher is, I could just watch it for hours..even on a shelf....

Yet another really beautiful restoration. your face painting is stunning - oh to have your tallent - I would be a very happy man indeed.
That has to be one of the best finneshed BA Scorchers ive seen!
Wow! very impresive restoration and shelf queen. Great job!
Big thanks for all your great comments! I'll appreciate very much... @beetleman: Can't say which is the best method, but for myself I've found out that brushing by hand works best, because after using masking tape I always had to go for corrections, by hand....but for 'straight lines' masking&painting is better...and easier - And yes, the SS has it's 30iest Ann. as well....born Dec79, cant wait for this christmas!
Beautiful restoration!!
Well done
Very tidy like
Be proud. She´s a beauty.
That is one beautiful Scorcher. Nice work!!
Flawless job, well done!
Been studying the pics trying to find faults with the paintwork....but cant! Great work!
Superb work! A perfect example. Which method do you find best for painting the window 'rubber' - brushing by hand or masking and spraying?
excellent work - looks perfect. I hope my SS will look like that one day..
Tamiya can save on taking pictures for the 2010 re-release now
Wow - that is fantastic.
Excellent restoration and superb pics too
