fireguy14 Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Had this one for a long, long time sitting on the shelf. Had a little hiatus from building as we built a new home, but one big benefit of that is that I once again have a hobby room at home. This was one of the first ones I built. Just did some detail painting, particularly carrying paintwork down onto the front splitter. So glad to have it done after all this time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raoul Ross Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 That looks awesome! I have a Revell C5R "Compuware" still shrink-wrapped, what is this one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a Revell C5R "Compuware" still shrink-wrapped, what is this one? Thank you Mr Ross! His was, I believe, the first issue of this kit. Was in a blu box with a clear window. The body was prepainted in the silver and black, with a few of the markings printed on. I did some detail painting on the body, then painted the interior and engine, which are hardly visible with the body on. Had found a buildup where the guy carried the black and silver onto the front splitter. Went back and looked thru pics of the real car and saw this was accurate so did that to mine. Here is a picture of one I snagged off ebay. Edited September 1, 2022 by fireguy14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
