  1. Beautiful
  2. Nice work. What's funny is I was just at an indoor Flea Market that's next door to where I get my car serviced; they had two die cast 61 Impalas in there. Someone was also selling several pricey Danbury Mint cars.
  3. Looks great
  4. Thanks, it was pretty hard to get it right.
  5. I've had this in my stash for awhile and finally decided to build it. It's a kit I recommend not trying unless you are near pro level. It's not that it's a hard build, but because there are a lot of pieces and the directions are not that great. There were parts covering my entire kitchen table. I was lucky that Revell of Germany has full color instruction sheets for their kits; so the coloring is correct. However, you will be turning back and forth in the instruction sheet trying to figure out what to do as it has a couple versions to make and you have to skip ahead and back in building the kit. It will also tell you to drill holes in certain places and it just gets crazy. Spoiler alert Germans; not everyone has a small drill! Why couldn't you, I don't know, just pre-drill the holes in the kit at the factory? Yeah, I get that there's a LH and RH drive versions, but you could have at least done it for the roof and mirrors or something. It's not a fun build, and I probably will never tackle this kit again.

  6. Beautiful. I've been trying to get my hands on one for awhile. One of the 2 AMC cars not in my collection
  7. You did a really good job on this conversion. I just purchased a second one of these kits and a resin scoop myself. I was thinking of doing something similar, though maybe not a 72.
  8. Beautiful. Love that color too.
  9. Good color choice. Looks great. A lot of us on here are brush painters.
  10. That looks amazing
  11. I've had a couple of kits misshapen. Still, this came out looking great.
  12. Nice, good color choice. I really enjoyed this kit when I did mine.
  13. I really like the red
  14. Looks great. I was like that with the green car I did. Saw another one like it, and knew I had to build one.
  15. Came out great for a printed model.
  16. Looks great. I agree it does have some flaws, but it also makes a great looking car.
  17. Beautiful. These are great kits. I got an S600 and and 800. Both kits came out great.
  18. Not bad for a Lowe's. Yeah grocery stores sell diecast on occasion; it's just hard to locate them.
  19. very nice
  20. Looks great. These are awesome kits.
