This is one of the models that my friend John gave me when he cleaned out his house. John originally painted this Testors copper enamel. I stripped it in Purple Power and painted it Testors Honderous Maroon Lacquer and Wet Look Clear top coat. The interior was done with Tamiya's Primer White with Maroon carpet. I tinted the glass with Tamiya's clear blue and added BMF

Thanks for looking and let know what you think.

NICE work on that ole 300!!!!!!!!! The paint, you made the windows look awesome with the slight blue tint to them! NICE work...... any engine pictures or is this a "curbside" model? The hood fits so well its difficult to tell if it opens or not!

Fantastic Al!!

I actually owned a 1:1 '67 300 & I have the '67 & '68 kits to build someday.

Come to think of it I have a '68 X-EL convertible promo as well.

My '67 was almost exactly the same color with a black vinyl top & interior, so yeah.....I've got a bit of a soft spot for this body style.

Terrific work Al!

Thanks everyone for the nice comments. This model has an engine, but it was build by my friend and it didn't come out very good, so I glued the hood closed. I posted a 67 300 awhile back that I was going to restore, but the previous owner used sooo much glue, that when I tried to take it apart it shattered. So I was so happy when John gave me this one last Wednesday.
