geetee66 Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 Here's my latest It's an Arii 1/24 kit. It needed a bit of work to make it go together properly. E.g. the interior didn't line-up with the exterior shut-lines on the doors. I had to remove a section from the front edge of the dashboard and move the body back until it looked right. The interior also sat too high and needed adjustment. The chassis and body were warped, too. All in all, it was a bit of a swine to put together, but I like a challenge. Wheels are from the Revell 49 Merc. Side pipes are part-box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StevenGuthmiller Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 I love it! I've had a couple of these laying around for years. I've never finished one because they always looked oddly proportioned to me. But seeing it built makes me think twice. Nice work!!
