Hmann68 Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 Hi all…I was able to finish the roadster today from the Tony Nancy double kit. It’s been about a year I guess since building the silver car. This one fought me a little, just as the other did, but all in all it went pretty well. I wasn’t sure about the color shade of this car but I had some leftover Tamiya Italian red, so why not use it up! Both cars look great next to each other I think! As always thanks for looking and comments are welcome and appreciated 😊😊 8 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larman Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 Great job! Those are 2 fiddly kits, but you really built them cleanly! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nitrobarry Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 The color is fine. The photos of back in the day tend to fade over time so it`s difficult to get the color right. That said you take your best shot and you did great! Nice models! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bainford Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 Both are beautiful. Nice clean work. It's good to see these old Revel kits built with care and attention. Lovely work all around. The silver dragster is my favourite of the 60s slingshots. I have the Tony Nancy double kit on the shelf, and that dragster is calling out to me every time I'm at the bench. I'll have to get that one built soon. Seeing the nice work on yours is certainly inspiration. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I too love the silver car, just a really nice looking car 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zippi Posted March 16, 2023 Share Posted March 16, 2023 Those two models look Great. Nice job. You had to be a little crazy back in the day to drive that red one down the track. If that rear end let go your boys were in for a world of hurting 😋 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
