Jimmy Flintstone made a lot of Curbsides and that's what this one will be also. Thinking maybe Translucent Purple on this one.

Yes, it looks really good on it. Also plan to put a few decals, then clear coat it, tinted windows, etc,

I always liked that color. WAAAAAAAY back in the day, I painted an AMT "59 Buick with that color.
This looks like it laid down really well.

I have never messed with resin parts yet even though I have a small stash of them.
Can any of you guys give me some tips on prep and cleaning resin castings?
I'm guessing 2 part epoxy or super glue for putting them together?

Sty, it's best to clean resin parts with Westley's Bleach White ( For Auto Tires ) or Dawn dish soap first, then CA or Super Glue.
