Got this one just so I could finish something quickly and break out of my rut, 3 days over two weekends. Kit is the Revell snap kit, paint is Testors Bright Calypso Metallic lacquer (I know, a Ford color on a Chevrolet lol), polished with Tamiya coarse and find compounds. Wheels, I think, are from the Revell Monte Carlo snap kit. Just feels good to finish one...lol. Hope you like it! :)

What a beautiful color, and of course the model is a home run! Thanks for sharing it.

Looks fantastic and the color fots that car perfectly too!

Looks great for a snapper.

Good job, and I like the paint color.


I have to hand it to Revell for this whole line of snappers, they may be simple kits but make for great models......and they're priced in the mid teens too!
