Modlbldr Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 (edited) I finished this one up at 1 AM today. Pretty quick build for me. Started it at the beginning of January. Thanks to a couple of guys, especially George Bojaciuk for sending some needed replacement parts! The box art showed the car sitting a bit high to my way of thinking so I lowered the suspension just a tad. Painted Testors Lacquer Inca Gold. Love the way the color came out. The only other mods were aluminum tubing for the exhaust tips. http:// http:// http:// http:// http:// More pics to come.

Snake45 Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 Beautiful! Thanks for the heads-up about the high sit. Inspired by your build, I started working on one of these, and have it just about ready for paint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Modlbldr Posted February 24, 2018 Author Share Posted February 24, 2018 (edited) Thanks guys. Glad I could inspire you Snake. I was inspired when I saw Kelson's. That box art just didn't look right but I almost got it too low.make sure you paint the entire underside of the interior bucket. You can see bare plastic around the rear wheel wells if you.look close enough. George- Thanks again for the help. With what you sent I now have enough to build another using a built up one that I was given a while back. It was missing quite a bit. I WILL send you some more for all of the help Later- Edited February 24, 2018 by Modlbldr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George Bojaciuk Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 We’re good Tom! That’s the box I used when I did the Vette in Four Barrels, Four Speeds and Horsepower. I think the body is cut out for the ‘69 rear valance. Part should be there in a diff color. I just wanna’ see finished pics! That would be payment enough!
