Mike are you going to weather it so the bottom is a dirty white from the numerous cleanings?

Howdy Curt,

Thanks for your question.  

I saw a photo somewhere of black stock cars with the lower parts bleached white from lye.  I plan to do something similar.

Have fun,

My current builds are on the Buffalo Canyon Mining Company's wooden Howe Truss Bridge, and miscellaneous rolling stock .

White stains and straw bits are what I've seen in pictures of stock car floors...

Thanks Dave.  I hadn't seen the straw, but I have some left over from the Parish Livery build.  I'll use it too.  Thanks again and have fun, mike

Mike, Howdy,

That stock car is going to look fantastic. I look forward to this build.
