spencer1984 Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 (edited) One of my current WIPs is Agent Coulson's '62 Corvette "Lola" from the ongoing TV Series Marvel: Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. I'm using AMT's kit despite its inaccuracies because I already had it in my stash, and with all of the modifications it needed I figure correcting it wouldn't be that much more work. My first steps were to correct the ridiculously undersized headlights and the too-tall front fascia: I then scratchbuilt a new chassis to reflect Lola's flight capabilities: Then the interior was assembled, and the extra panels and late-model shift lever were added: Edited March 25, 2015 by spencer1984 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spencer1984 Posted March 25, 2015 Author Share Posted March 25, 2015 Currently I have all of the major assemblies together, and will be adding the rest of the trim and details in the next few days: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobraman Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Cool project. I enjoy that show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randx0 Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Great idea and execution. How will you display it? Because if not in flight the unknowing will only see a nice corvette. And that is a nice looking chassis . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deathgoblin Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Suggestion: Look around for the Aoshima BTTF Delorean. It has suspension that shifts from road to flight mode. Maybe you could adapt it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chunkypeanutbutter Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Not a big fan of Marvel, but I love the car. "Don't touch Lola." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spencer1984 Posted March 26, 2015 Author Share Posted March 26, 2015 Thanks, guys! I plan on having her in ground mode only, though the thought of making a flight mode (or convertible - thanks for the suggestion, Brian!) had crossed my mind. I decided in the end that I prefer the "stealth" look, and anyone who looks under the hood or chassis can be surprised. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Ellis Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 This is an incredible project. At least SHIELD didn't use a '61. That would have made the project more work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
