Duntov Posted May 12, 2014 Posted May 12, 2014 This is a simple build of the Revell 63 Corvette Coupe snap kit --- I scratch built a big tank and added wheels and tires from the old AMT Ertl 49 Olds die cast bank........ I used some old parts box head lights in place of the grille and blacked out what would have been the stainless steel window trim to represent a car that had the trim removed for racing --- a common practice --- Seat belts are made from wine bottle tin and the fire extinguisher from an AMT 40 Ford kit has been added --- BMF is used for the cookie sheets and wiper arms --- Wind wings, emblems and door handles are hand painted using chrome paint extracted from a calligraphy pen and brushed on --- The positraction label and jacking instructions are photo copies of the real labels reduced to 1:25 ---- Since the basic kit is an A/C car I reworked the dash to represent a radio and heater delete car --- The decals are from Gopher Racing ----
