I've been working on this for a couple of months now. I'm pretty happy with the results. The car is built from two 1/20 kits. Main kit it the MPC Stinger Corvette and a parts donor kit is the Monogram Corvette Coupe. I tried to get a few more angles, but these were the only ones I was happy with. The 1:1 I've owned since 2006.
I just finished the tribute to my 1981 Z28 that I've owned for the last 23 years. I used the Revell 1979 Z28 kit because it came closest to resembling my car. I know the hood scoop, fender vents, and grill are different so use your imagination. The late 70s and early 80s weren't the most popular years for the Z28 but they were the cars of my youth. I also haven't built a model since I was a kid, but I'm very pleased with how it turned out thanks to a wealth of info and tips I got from this message board. Thanks to everyone who replies to questions (stupid and otherwise) and offers their knowledge and thanks for looking. I hope the pics post. Fingers crossed.
I'm building a replica of my 81 Z28 and I'm trying to find wheels that closest match my American Racing Outlaw 1:1 wheels. I've found a 1957 Nomad kit that looks like my wheels but I'm not sure. Here's a pic of my car and the Nomad kit if anyone can steer me in the right direction I'd really appreciate it.
