Quiet Eric Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 Done for a birth-year community build on another site. There aren't a lot of kits out there for '84. Almost went with the Deserter GMC but I'm not much on trucks and being pretty partial to BOP stuff, figured I could fudge the Revell '83 H/O into an '84. If you followed the build thread then you'll know everything went south with the clearcoat but there wasn't any turning back. It's obviously lowered quite a bit from stock and the wheels are from a Revell '62 Impala kit. I was able to trim the kit decals enough to work with the color swap. All chrome done with Molotov.

Captain Spaulding Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 Great job, always thougth the 84's with the silver and black reversed looked better than the 83's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stitchdup Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 Nice work, the stance and wheels suit it well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doorsovdoon Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 Turned out great, I really like this. The clearcoat issue you had has made it look exactly like a car that's just been jet washed after being covered in lichen for years. A new set of wheels, clean plugs and she's driving again after sitting twenty years! Nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of folks have mentioned it looks about as good as the factory paint was on these cars, so I'll just pretend it was all on purpose! 3 hours ago, cobraman said: I like it.
