Yellow 72
I love the yellow on black engine compartment.
How did you get that 'texture' with the yellow?

Thanks, I wanted something other than the typical black engine bay.
After spraying the semi gloss black I used acrylic enamel of the same color as the body and just dipped a paint stick in the can and more or less slung it on untill it looked right :smash:

Yellow 72', a little off topic here, but what paint/color did you use on your exterior? I have a 72' yellow vert that needs repainting, and yours look excellent from the pic!
