Mike any progress on this one? I have been offering 1/16 stuff for a fellow member and could help you out if you want to. You can have a look in my Chevy C10 Stepside thread if you want some inspiration.

1/16 scale kits, good ,bad, ugly?
Mattilacken replied to Oldmopars's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
I bought the AMT 1978 Corvette 25 Aniversary 1/16 recently and i was actualy suprised. Quality was good parts had nice details and it came with optional racing seats, the fit of the chassi to the tub seems like rubish but overal nice details compared to my other Revell Baja kit. The Revell Baja Fever needs allot of work in my opinion and is very inacurate. -

Made some progress over the last days. Interior is coming along, the bmw inside door handles that I got from a forum member fits the Porsche nicely and ads some needed detail. I also painted the rear seat more like the 1:1 than what the kit gave, think will flock it with the floor. engine is also in and everything foyer nice when test fitting but now when it’s glued in the IC touches the body and the chassi won’t fit snug. Will se what I do tomorrow. Wheels and brakes are done and rear suspension is glued in. The modified floor pan can be seen here. -

Looking nice mate! nice tuch with the switch! -
Came out great! Looks very real and with the limited amount of aftermarket parts (exept now when printing is availble) it for sure looks the part! Need to get my hands on one of these in the future.

'Great looking build! Stance is just right and with that color it looks like a sleeper!

Great backstory! Yes they for sure are important! I usaly go to Modellhobby (Järnvägs Specialisten) in Luleå and i just love going in there, its a large shop with a good selection of kits no aftermarket though.

Was to the capital today and picked up Tamiya fine polish compound and also found a big scale vette to a price i could not recist. Actualy seems to be a neat kit with much more detail than other 1/16 kits i have seen and it does come with two intakes and two sets of seats. The chassi looks nice with good detail on a arms and other parts but I might throw a resin tube chassi underneath it though, and i do need a spoiler and front lip. Borrowed picutre, mine was not sealed
