One of the European partworks issues is a series of military vehicles including two US cars, a 1941 Chevrolet sedan and a 1941 Desoto sedan.   Here is one of the Desotos resprayed in a maroon color with some correction done to the front bumper.    I am thinking of getting an additional one and creating a club coupe.   Like the one in the car wash scene from Cool Hand Luke.

And here is the Chevrolet in navy livery and resprayed civilian.

Usually a Krylon or sometimes an automotive tough up spray paint.   One has to be careful of metallics as the can sometimes turn out too grainy.  Sometimes I even mix Krylons to get a correct shade and spray with a Prevo sprayer.
