Young iron

I see textured insulation, nicely shaped fuel tank with fuel line, separated leaf springs, separated exhaust and axle. Nothing you couln't turn into a nice build with a few spay cans and pencils. BTW, I'll pay that kit three times $25 (wanna build 3 of them) instead of having it discontinued. Same for all the 66 Wildcat, 70 Impala, 71 Cuda, 74 GTX, etc

A REAL Rauchsilber/red 190 2.6 ? BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH golden brits !

What a great build !!! The Phase 2 W201 is WAY nicer than the Phase 1. I enjoy the Rauchsilber metallic paint, as well as the red leather. And your M-102 and engine bay look sooooo good. Last detail : turn signal repetitors on the front fenders to match the italian licence plates. Sharp ! Where is the 190E badge ?

Nice job ! Red is always a winner.

Oh my, she's a Beauty !!!

Ditto Tom Body is great. Mr Revell, just separate front grill from bumper, or even better, separate the bumper filler panels, and it's perfect. For the guys who dare kitbash (too long, I have too much ideas for that), maybe the 1980 Caddy chassis and Engine compartment would work ?

Thanks everybody !!! Yes, I tried to detail this kit as a Glue kit. Dave, this is a clean build ! Revell does include Swivel-seats, other choices were bench seats. I love these cars, please Revell, release some other big 70's models !!!

Hi I just finished her, after months of work ( I need to improve my pace) and a lot of changes. She first was supposed to be a solid Baby-blue Lowrider. But I decided to go Factory-stock. This is the Revell Snap kit. Paint is actual 1977 Chevy Dark blue green metallic 48, sprayed with a Motip can. Interior is white with green accents, as the Swivel seat option allows. All I added is the Modelhaus wire wheel-covers on T-426 tires, and a Model car Garare photoetch set. Hood ornament comes from a Amt 1966 Buick Wildcat. And since the plastic created a "hole" after peint behind the rear glass, where a tube supports the interior bathtub, I placed that CB antenna... Interior details Real car I learnt a lot with this kit. Especially for bumpers and Two-tone interior. Hope I will live long enough to build one more. Like a Mahogany metallic 1976.

Enjoy this great reference website for DSs : http://www.nuancierds.fr/entree.htm I wanna mine be Bleu turquoise with Oldfashioned blue seats. http://www.nuancierds.fr/INTZ%20bleu%20turquoise%20ID%201957.htm

What about Gremlin underpinnings ? That different ? Dunno much about AMC.

Ow yes, PLEASE !!!

Original and lovely !

Before 1968, and the restyling featuring larger headlights, the wheels were held by a signle bolt...

Oh yeah, I forgot these luxury Full-option (compared to the domestic ones) LeCar...

The french Renault 4, nicknamed 4L, is an institution in Europe. Pronounciation is Quatrelle. These cars were everywhere from 1961 till the late 1980's. In France they've been the most sold cars till the time really modern ones arrives on the market : 1983 Peugeot 205 and 1984 Renault Supercinq. 4Ls have been killed for the 1993 milestone, when EEC rules required Fuel injection and catalytic converters for any new car built. That also killed the much more famous 2CV. Before that, these cars were still selling well. Every french, or at least southern european family has has a 4L or a Renault 5. They were cheap, really practical, easy to maintain, fun to drive, and incredibly reliable. And more sober than VWs, for instance. You could abuse these for 20 000 kilometers, with just the classic service and ignition settings. Not bad for 1.0 liter engines ! By 1980, Renault was the largest european carmaker, thanks to these cheap 4 and 5 models. Their biggest trouble was rust. A lot, I mean A LOT of these cars have been scrapped after a crash or just important rust with good engines. In France, they're the latest trend for Youngtimers. For the same reasons they sold brand new, plus their 1000% french DNA. EBBRO took a risky bet to offer these cars in kit. But time will show they're right. When American iron's prices are skyrocketing, there's a market for these cars we enjoy on both 1:1 and 1:25 scale. This is a picture of my 1985 Renault 5. One of the lasts. 37 000 original kilometers, zero rust, original paperwork, currently for sale.

Very nice ! Love the model and wheels. You can compare with the one I built 10 years ago.

Lada Niva

I like these cars. They were witnesses of their Era. That kit at least includes factory-correct decals. Whether you wanna build a X-11 or just a Club Coupe (like me), the wrongest part will be the hood. Any resin flat one ?

Amazing !

Just the way 1:1 are...

Haha, at last ! Great Butterscotch paint !

Chief Joseph will lead us to victory ! Would be interested, with a flat hood. So we can build horrible Granny LeMans...

What a car ! What a model !!!

Fortunately, we won't have to wait another 3 years till the next completion

Fantastic build and paint ! You nailed that specific look I love more and more everyday. Next Nostalgia trend ?
