Veloci 'T'   back  next

Built by:  Mike Sharpless in Philadelphia, PA

Built this some years ago from an MPC Fire Truck Engine Co. No. 13 kit. I wanted to change it up a bit, so I airbrushed it with Auto Air Pearl White, adding some yellow fades. 

Decals are from the MPC Milk Trike kit. After I applied the decals, I cleared them with Testors wet look. 

When I began this build, I aimed for an early '70s aesthetic. So when I did the flocking, I brushed on a little extra glue to make the brown flocking thicker, like a '70s shag carpet. Another added detail is an aftermarket aluminum air cleaner.
