    Hey Juan, I love what you did with this 550 Spyder. It’s a 10/10 on the cool scale. Of course you know the James Dean connection with this one. Your pen paint application looks awesome. I didn’t notice any flaws at all. I’m positive that the lucky recipient of your giveaway will be very pleased. Thanks for taking part in my 1 year YT channel-versary. I know we’re all very busy, so I’m honoured that you made time for this. That meant a lot. Porsche guy approved! - Andrew 🍁🇨🇦👊 BTW, for those reading comments: If you didn’t catch it, that’s a picture of my adopted city - Basel, Switzerland - on the end screen. Nice touch, Juan!

      I actually got this casting to do a replica of James Dean's "Little Bastard" but the decals I made were so small that you couldn't even see the Porsche logos....Glad you've liked my "Easter egg" at the end. I knew you'd notice. It seems a beautiful place. All the best Andrew

      @@MatchboxResurrection If you don't have time to go through all 43 Porsche videos this weekend, be sure to check out Ron Raby's entry at SoMo Diecast. He did the 550A as a James Dean "Little Bastard" and it came out great, right down to the license plate. 😎 Be sure to send me a glamour pic, Juan. Include your full name (if you wish); your current town in the UK and hometown in Spain too! andrewprice04@gmail.com Thanks. Recap video coming out on Monday. 🍁

      Yes mate, I've tried green and black ink. The black gives you a very nice dark purple. but it behaves the same. As for the green, the color was good but the finish was rough and sandy. Shame because all of them have like a metallic hue that look really cool. Cheers Dougie
