I had this Action Helio/Gil car since it was produced & last year I finally converted it. Action made some high quality diecasts, great fit & finish. To bad they quit OW. All I had to do is build the wings, remove some incorrect markings & apply the correct ones & stripes. Paint by Action......mostly.   |

So you do your own decals when needed? That's an extra bonus in a rewarding build!
I always thought these cars were sharp ;D this is a great looking build. I would love to have one of these on the shelf one day....

A freind did these for me & they were challenging to apply. To get the proper dayglo the decals were clear inside. A layer of dayglo decal (Studio27) was layed under each one carefully cutting it to the exact size. The toughest were the nose, camera & r endplates. Not many aftermarket printers can do dayglo. Man I wish Action was still doing OW. I wish AutoArt would have gotten the Indycar license. They're putting out some nice cars. |
