Just getting started but I'm excited about this build. I'm actually combining parts from the Street fighter kit and a diecast model. Plus the big block and other bits from a Monogram '70 Chevelle.

Hi Geno,
Looks like it's going to be a fun build. Glad to see you're getting back to modelling, and also happy to see you're going to use whatever materials are available to make an interesting model.

I posted this in the want ads but does anyone have the clear glass to fit this model? Actually all I need is the windsheild. Thanks.

[H.A.K]

Cant wait for updates...

[Green Duster]

Oh yes updates and pics. PLEASE!

[Dogfish_7]

Interesting!

[Jantrix]

I have this kit too with the red glass. I wish there was someone after market making clear windshields for this one.

[Geno]

Here's the dash. I didn't like the plain flat dash with just the tach, so I cut out an opening and grafted the panel in from a '59 Chevy dash. it's just roughed in right now but it'll get there.

The Revell 1960 Impala is a great donor for this. I'm doing the same project only with a Jimmy Flintstone resin body.
