  1. I hear ya. I got the Bora kit and ran into the same problems. Your model looks good though.
  2. Looks great, I think it's one of your best yet.
  3. A friend got it for me as a Christmas present. Finally got around to building it. The kit started out pretty nice, but ended up being frustrating to build. The fit of certain key pieces is horrible. The cab fit doesn't fit quite right to the chassis. The fit of the bed of the truck, though, is the worst. It does not go together right at all. There's also a huge gap in the bed. The plastic for the windshield and rear window don't fit quite right either. It took a lot to get it looking just this good.

  4. It's an old Revell kit. Doesn't look like you're missing anything except for what's under the hood and the decals. You scored a pretty nice find. I wouldn't mind another one myself. This was one of the first kits I ever made back when I first got started and didn't know much about paint, ect. I ended up using the wrong paint and screwed some things up. It still came out OK, but I don't have any good examples of the 63-67 Stingrays. I think your find will work well for what you have in mind though.
  5. Looks like it could be a twin to the one I did when they first came out. It's not a bad kit to pick up. I agree on the decals, they weren't that great. It's nice they're starting to add decals like that to the kit, but it doesn't do any good if they can't be seen once applied. I've had that problem with a few kits now.
  6. Nice. I didn't have a fit issue with the bumper when I did mine. Did have the same problem you had with the mirrors though.
  7. I thought about getting the Testors kit not long ago. Thanks for the info on the kit. Doesn't look too bad.
  8. Looks real good. Excellent color choice. I'd like another one, but can't afford the price.
  9. Never seen the kit. Looks cool
