Here are a couple of Corvette C5R the silver one is the old Revell Profinish and the blue one is the 2012 release from the 2003 Lemans 24 hr. race. I touched up the paint, added decals and re-cleared the silver one. The blue one didn't come with any Goodyear markings so I added those.

Mike, I sprayed the body with Tamiya TS50 out of the can then dusted TS 51 over the top to darken it a little. Sounds goofy but it actually worked. You also can order the correct blue from Zero paints. I think the actual GM color is Xenon Blue or 50th anversary Lemans blue. Thanks for looking at the cars.

That's a sweet pair of C5r's! Love the racing vettes. Great job on them.

I agree! I would love to get hold of one of those silver ones even if it's prepainted body lol. Good job.

B)Danno, Thanks for the complement. I used to compete at the Copper State back in the day and I have also competed at the Desert Scale Classic a couple of times. Really enjoyable events. I hope to make it to the classic this year.
