lghtngyello03 Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 What's up guys? I haven't had the chance to build or post in the past year almost, working 84 hrs a week will do that to you, lol. After a year of sitting on my bench, I finally finished this one up. Paint is ScaleFinishes Chevrolet Safari Yellow with ScaleFinishes clear. The wheels are from Steve Zimmerman and all the chrome is painted with Spazsitx chrome. All the trim for the chrome around the vinyl roof was made by me, as well as the trim on the top of the door and around the rear tail light center panel. The roof is sprayed with Tamiya Semi Gloss Black. Interior is flocked, and seat belts were added. I had to slam it down to get that aggressive nice stance. The BMF on this one tested my patience, lol but I feel it turned out alright. My only complaint is the grille, not the greatest for detail, and I couldn't figure out the ModelCarGarage grill worked out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tmb727 Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 That's a gorgeous engine bay. How did you get the texture for the vinyl roof before you applied the semi-gloss black? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

espo Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Great looking build. I like the detailing of the chassis, and the thin film of "rust" on the mufflers. The trim for the vinyl roof looks just like OEM. The interior is very realistic looking. This is a great kit, and I love the subject. I had a '72 Monty that I picked up in the late '70's and it served me well and one of the best handling big cars on the open road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
