Hello everyone! Wanted to stop in and start a thread for my little project here. Its a Revell kit from 2003 I got for an insanely low price! It was still in the factory shrink wrap but of course its vented and it appears to have been stored in a very damp climate. Ill have some example pictures below. Some history: This will be my first build in well over 5 years, so it's going to be a slow one guys. I plan to use this kit as a refresher for some various techniques I've had on the brain for a little time now. I picked this kit in particular because when I was about 14 I built one in 2 days, it was gnarly bad. That... And it was CHEAP, I think I paid less than $10 shipped. I've seen a lot of these kits built, so I'm hoping to do something just a little different. ::Plans:: -Exterior: Silver or Ferrari Azzuro California -Interior: 2 Tone Black & Dark Grey -Faux Challange Stredale Rear Insert -Satin Black or Gunmetal Wheels.http://jerryscherrys.freeforums.net/thread/edit/1267 And here she is! (Ruined box because of moisture) What also gave away the moist storage (Besides the stained and collapsed box) is that the chrome pieces lost their luster. All medium gloss grey now. Im waiting on a few more supplies before I really dig into it, but ill keep this thread updated along the way. Thanks for looking! *UPDATE* 12-22-13 Couldn't resist the open kit sitting on my station. Did the trim job on the engine bay surround since these pieces are shared with the Modena hard top kit, as well as trimmed excess plastic and dry mocked everything to test fitment.
