Faschrome shot up inside the body to mimic bare sheet metal, backed with FasBlack, 'glass topper is FasBlack as well.  On the outside are Tamiya flat paints. I don't remember the numbers. The OD Green is actually called flat khaki (shrug, I dunno), then there's flat desert tan ( I think) and flat black. Completely missed the mark of Woodland Camo. I thought the airbrush was going to lay down a LOT more paint than it actually did. Also got impatient and didn't mask the outside, or at least have a cut-out template of some sort.  It didn't turn out what I would call 'horrible' by any means, but I did have some exceedingly lofty expectations for this one.   IMO, still needs a SeaBees logo for the hood, but it's good enough to get by for now.  |

I suggest you google 70's chevy body, because you'll find there are a couple different styles. There's the early '70's up to '72, and then the body changed in '73, and that body stayed the same until '86.
