Left Coast Model Car Builds
США
Добавлен 3 июл 2023
Welcome to Left Coast Model Car Builds! This channel is focused on model car building, some 1:1 scale stuff and occasionally you may see us in the pool hall! I grew up around the big scale cars as my father did paint and body work, he got me started on the model cars when I was about 11 years old, my kids have all dabbled with the scale plastic at one point or another but my youngest daughter has stuck with it so you will see some of her projects/builds along with pops and mine. Thank you for checking out the channel, feel free to post comments, subscribe if you like the content and I hope you enjoy the builds! Be sure to check out the "Shorts" videos as well!

Building Model Cars: How to Prep a Model Car for Primer and Paint
Looking good Paul! Good job sticking with it! 😎👍
That's cool
Hey Paul I've had good results using a dremel versa with a wool pad it spins fairly slow.
Your 49 is looking good Paul, 😎👍
@@ramblers69 thank you Tom 🙏
Despite the challenges its looking good.
Thank you!!!
Nice update, it really looks good Paul, Thanks for sharing.
@@DonnieGriffin-eo2eo thank you Donnie, getting close!!!
I’ve only tried wet sanding and buffing on a 1/16 scale funny car. I was really impressed by how it turned out. I don’t actually build street cars, where you want a flawless finish. I typically build race cars, usually around the seventies, and eighties, when the finish wasn’t that important. I’m starting to appreciate how much nicer the models look after the sanding and polishing, and I’m gonna try it more often in the future
It's a task, not my most favorite part of the build but it does help clean it up some! Those older funny cars etc are really cool!!!
Love the update Paul! Enjoy your weekend!
@@StoutCreations24 thank you, appreciate you dropping by 🤙🏼🙏
Good to hear your enjoying the build. You ask me you can never go wrong with red. I like the blue one. Keep Up The Good Work Paul. I'll be watching
@@michaelhintzmikesminiature1812 thank you brother, I will probably do another one down the road in red, love the old shoebox Fords 🤙🏼
Great update Paul. The 49's both are looking awesome. Ron
@@ronstewart9792 thank you Ron 🙏
Nice update. Your ‘49 is a really clean build. It looks really good. Thanks for sharing.
@@michaelcooke2559 thank you brother, feels great to see this one getting close!
Great hearing i'm not the only one that has been about to throw the build in the trashcan 😆😆😆 Build is looking great Paul!!! Keep on it! Cant wait to see it finished!
@KitbashedKustoms haha, thank you, I feel your pain, was the dang foil/trim too 🤦🏻🤙🏼
Paul, I'm with ya on that 49 Ford Shoebox, They remind me of a Bulldog of a car. I just did my 3rd one as a Tribute to WW2 USAAF and Painted up in P-51 Mustang colors. I opened the Wheel wells for some Iceman MT 50s on rear w/Center Line rims, some VCG Resin Bomber seats. They Look really tough Hot Roded. 2 Nice builds ya did Paul, Thanks for Sharing
@@slougo5909 that sounds like an awesome build!!! I’d love to see some pics if you have time to email them at some point!! I love these 49s, models and the real ones!
Paul, just sent ya photos of 2 of my 49 Ford builds in email
@ awesome! Going to check them out now!!
hi Paul...awesome "how you" do your finish your builds.. thx 4 sharing.. vinny
Thanks brother 🤙🏼
Absolutely amazing. Can't wait to see it finished
@@carlkandetzki9077 thank you, it is getting close!!! 🤙🏼🤦🏻
I just recently had to color sand a model I painted with extreme lacquer. Then I clear coated it, and sanded the clear, then polished it. I have done that process a few times with different paints. Should I just clear over the paint even if theres a little orange peel or is it best to color sand then clear coat?
I always tell people, if you have a system that works, stick with it. Lacquer can be wet sanded and polished, at least the old automotive stuff. For myself, working more with bases, metallics, pearls and candy's...I normally won't sand on those unless I'm going to lay down some more color. If working with a solid color, shouldn't affect it.
Nice polishing work.
Thank you 🙏
Excellent tutorial, Paul, its looking beautiful, brother 😁🤙
Thank you brother! 🙏
I still don't have the polishing down, next year maybe.
It is a patience game, sometimes when just starting, keep to the finer paper grit until you get comfortable
Thanx for sharing your experience.
@@DonzTattoozGarage thanks for dropping in brother 🤙🏼
Turned out great
@@KRD12K thank you brother 🤙🏼
Thanks for Sharing Paul, I do All my builds as Hot Rods, I Pledge 2 coats and polish with Tamiya's 3 compounds. I want my builds to look like a guy washed/waxed his car in his driveway on a weekend. I Personally think those model competition shines don't look realistic. Kinda like Over Weathering a WW2 plane, but that's just me
@@slougo5909 thank you 🙏. With the 2k clears, if it sprays out clean, you do not have to do much. I used to keep a can of pledge with me at shows and use that to wipe models down as I was setting them on the tables
Looks stunning! Is that Enamel or Lacquer paint? And what clear did you use?
@@deputy3690 thank you 🙏. It is basecoat, house of Kolors Oriental Blue which you can pick up from Scalefinishes, use Leftcoast10 for a discount! Clear is 2k, you can pick that up from scalefinishes as well! Thank you again
I will start 1000 or 2000 grit, just depends, then I will go to trizact 3k, 5k, 8k and then all Mequairs compounds and polish, seems to work for me, 😎👍
@@ramblers69 very cool, I am going to look at more Meguairs again, Mothers used to have some great stuff to work with also! Thank you for chiming in brother, your finishes are always killer 🔥
Looks fantastic brother 😊
@@user-styrenelive505 thank you brother 🤙🏼
@LeftCoastModelCarBuilds yw always brother.
👍
@@hortonshotrodshop2003 thank you brother 🤙🏼
Hey Paul! I use a very similar process. I use a Meguiars scratch x as well with some ultimate compound and polish with some menzerna fine polish for my finish... but very similar process... makes for a great finish.
@@TerryWilsonModels very cool, so many options out there these days! I have a few other things I want to try as well
Paul looks like you have your work cut out for you but don't all builders.
@@hortonshotrodshop2003 never ending brother 🤙🏼
That blue is absolutely gorgeous Paul and I'd definitely trade a 356a for that caddy lol 😆 😄 😉❤😊
@@thescalemodelcarguychannel8681 thank you brother!! I’ll have to see how many we have…those old caddies are nice kits
@LeftCoastModelCarBuilds yes they are lol
Sweet ride's
Awesome video Paul. Even though I was a Mercury fan I have always loved the Grapevine. Ron
@@ronstewart9792 thank you brother, Mercs had some sweet designs as well 🤙🏼
Gorgeous! What brand and color of blue did you use on the Chevelle? Primer color? Thanks!
@@kaxxaharra thank you, Tamiya gray primer and the blue is a PPG BMW blue if I recall correctly
Cool 📖
@goforitpainting thank you 🙏
It turned out killer brother! I'll have to send you a pic of my shop husky Kai. Merry Christmas!
Thank you brother! Yes, please do!!!!
Oh yeah beautiful Cadillac 😊
@@bigcharliesmodelgarage296 right!!!
Heck of a build Paul, hope to see this at NNL
@@scaleffect thank you 🙏. It’ll be there!! Looking forward to catching up!
I’ll get involved in this……
@@KrowKustoms good way to knock out a stalled build!! 🤙🏼
@ I have something in mind
@ awesome!! I have several stalled builds, hopefully this will motivate me to jump back on a few of them!
@ I think a certain 59 Lincoln…….. it will fit both this one and the kustoms illustrated builds
Kool stuff. Take care my friend and happy modeling. Don👍😎👍
@@donsgarage684 thank you Don 🤙🏼
@LeftCoastModelCarBuilds you're welcome brother 😊
Great video... nice kit
@@KRD12K thank you brother 🤙🏼
I'm really diggin' that old Johan kit. That was another great issue too. Take care my friend and happy modeling. Don👍😎👍
@@donsgarage684 thank you for the continued support my friend 🤙🏼
Awesome stuff as always homie!!😊
@@user-styrenelive505 thank you brother 🤙🏼
Really cool old kit, Paul, nice find!! As always, awesome issue of Kustoms Illustrated 😊🤙
@@SmallADVentures1973 thank you brother 🤙🏼
you guys zombie build has got me motivated to finish a stalled build I've had for four years I bought this kit during Covid but then got Covid and never went forward. My question is can any of us join this or only content creators ?
I'm sorry I forgot to mention that in 2020 when I ordered that kit it was my return to model building after about 40 years. So long story short I got on here to watch guys like you all and learn new techniques to build better than I did back then
@@joeyclark1768 definitely jump in on this one!! It’ll be great to see folks finishing up these stalled builds!
Nice video Paul, love to see the Caddy build up.
@@DonnieGriffin-eo2eo one of them will hit the bench here soon 🤙🏼
Looks like a fun build Paul.
@@Terry-390 indeed my friend 🤙🏼
Cool Vintage Styrene Have a great week
@@busterscustoms thank you brother, hope you have a great week also!! 🤙🏼
Awesome Caddy Paul!!
@@ramblers69 thank you brother 🤙🏼
I love those early 60's Caddy's. I have a built up promo style '63 that I'll do something with some day.
@@DKScaleAutoWorkshop very cool!! Love the body style in those early 60s!! 🤙🏼
It's an old kit but it looks good
@@PLIG_ thank you, well cared for whoever had it! 🤙🏼
Very shweet images of when cars with elegant shapes meets the new artistic touch and paint scheme ideas ! Thanks for the share!
