relaxednoma Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 I really love the realistic look this has. Excellent work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigEdsGarage Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 This is a great build! It's always cool to see a replica scale car, especially when it can be done accurately. BTW the factory color on your brother's car is code 61 Burnished Brown Metallic, which is a fairly rare color on any of GM's performance cars. Wheels look like Boss 338's which are very similar to most torque thrust style wheels. Looks like you got the stance nailed down perfectly. Can't wait to see this one finished.
