Hi,
today I received a parcel with GPW for my Thunderbird.
In addition he added another Thunderbird.
Now my first Thunderbird is Standing on 4 wheels again and might get a repaint someday the other one will stay original.
Special thanks to Kurt. :D

If we go for a repaint on the Thunderbird, what is the best colour...

I'll start this little comp with bright Red.

The grey wheels look great on the T-bird. Nicely done!

Can you add a post on Tim's Toolbox about how you removed the rusty axels and the paint from the donor wheels?

Thank you
Kurt

No such luck for me. The T-bird is not mine.
Someone who works nearby drives this vehicle on nice summer days.
Happy hunting!

If I do a repaint it will look like the real one on Kurts pic.

Not too easy to see what colour the real car is...Cream-Beige perhaps!
