How to paint my Procat?

[DanB4]

I've almost finished my Procat restore and have a nice new clear original shell/wing/tray on her.....but how to paint it??

All pics and suggestions welcome!

This is the obvious choice I guess?:

I'm going to paint my TopCat in Phil Davies race colours.... like this;

Simple but suitably vintage, & a fitting tribute to Phil :cool:

That looks like a good option Dan thanks! My missus found this in a box at home it took me right back!

Well DerbyDan thanks for the suggestion!

Not a perfect job, should have used better quality masking tape but I'm not unhappy with the overall look.....need a small Union Jack now as only have 2 USA flags for wing.

I haven't even stripped the chassis down yet so apologies for the dirt, dust and lack of shiney bits at the mo!

Looking real good. If I were to give mine a new shell it would be those colours :thumbsup:

Does anyone have a new or decent condition Procat bumper for me? Mine is cracked and at some point has been glued. As you can see the car has an XLS bumper fitted at the moment.

Looks great Dan.... glad you went with that scheme. I think that when I do mine i'll use flouro red.

Would be nice to find the correct Reedy decals for the sides..... really want to get cracking on with my TopCat now!

Looks awesome...ready to jump off the table.

Some closeups of the xls and under the hood would be great!
