Had this one banging around in my stash forever. Painted and polished it in 2010. Color is Testors 1849 Graphite Dust. Clear coated it with their wet look clear and jsut for effect added some brass to the clear. Built mostly stock with a few additions. I have almost every year Corvette and slowly getting them done. See captions under the pictures for more details. Car done and photographed on my fall background. Wasn't real happy about the way AMT attaches the wheels but at least got them to steer Rear veiw had some nice detail. Car looks like it is going somewhere. That accent moulding in the fender scoop wasn't included in the kit although the box art clearly had it. So I made one. The kit did have this nice convertible top. Painted Tamiya Nato black. Engine detail was fairly nice but getting it in place was something else. I forgot how much work domestic kits were, Note the two jewelers screw at the base of the windshield. This was a much better solution that trying to glue it in place. My experience with Vettes was that the windshields were very fussy because of the angle.
