The seats are from a revell 69 Camaro, I believe. Jeff -

Nicely done. I wish Fujimi would release the GT40s again. They're going for stupid money, right now. I got a black 66 MkII but really want the 68. Jeff

This is my 3rd of the year & 1st Plague build. My 2nd Covid car is in the Under Glass Cars. Paint is Testors Turn Signal Red over a custom orange that wasn't covering well Custom parking lights are aluminum tube heated with clear plastic sprue pushed in, & polished. I sanded the back of the grill to open it up. Tail lights & backup lights made the same way as the front parking lights. Engine Interior Chassis

I love the MEME in the 1st post. Four years ago, we retired & moved into a new house. I had never gotten my hobby room, up & running, & it had become the catch all room. The first of the year, I cleaned & organised, for a couple weeks. At the end of January, I joined Tom Greiger & a bunch of his cronies, for the 24 hours of Daytona build. It was my 1st finished build in 2 1/2 years. I finished a 2nd, before COVID & finished one a couple weeks ago. I have 3 going, right now. Of course, being retired, I can continue after the plague is over. Jeff

Thanks everyone, for the praises. I need it, after that build. LOL

It is out of the box, except for the outside rear view mirror. It shot out of the tweezers, last night. I looked all over for it but it was gone. I started a new project, today, & found it, right in the middle of my work bench. It was NOT there, last night!!!! It is a nice color. It's very warm, even over grey primer. Watch your coats, too thick & it does bad things. I had to reshoot the hood & still got some wrinkles. I like Tamiya lacquers better.

Second for the year. It fought me tooth & nail but I'm calling it done. It's built out of the box. The color is Testors Mythical Maroon. It's not my best work but it's not my worst. Here's a pic of the interior & engine since you can't see them very well, once it's together.
