Both of your builds are terrific, and Mustangs too!!!! I don't know if you realize, but there is a separate category to post NASCAR builds

Very Impressive! Everything is perfectly done.

I did this a looooong time ago. This is my local police dept rendition of a cruiser I was assigned to back in the 90's. I added an custom aftermarket light bar, texture to the front seats, made the back seat a one piece safety seat with restraint system, and home made decals from photos of the actual markings of the 1:1 car.

Excellent effort. Looks like it is on the showroom floor. I love all you did with the engine compartment
-
Nuts, just nuts! But the good kind. Lots to like about this.

Very nice rendition and clean build. I always like the look of the base model wheels on these older cars.

Thanks guys, and I am pleased to announce that my Buick took first place in my club's annual model show for the domestic/stock category. ?

Thanks everyone

Great job on a rarely seen subject as usual for you, Tom
-
Now there is one you don't see every day, or ever...lol. Nice

Thanks again, and Kyle, you are right about the front bumper and hood. One thing about this kit, all the detail is there but to tease it out and get it right was a challenge. Not bad for such an old kit. Really nice molded details. BTW, I rechromed the valve covers and rear bumper with sprayed Molotow ink. It really is amazing stuff.

Thanks, and I have to add that if anyone builds this kit, I would advise using the "custom" rear suspension for a stock build like I did. The "stock" rear suspension is way to low. All wheels sit flat without adjustments

This is the 1/24 scale original Monogram kit from 1989. It is painted in "scalefinishes" factory Saturn Yellow with decanted UPOL clear coat. I added some details from the Model Car Garage photo etch set in addition to door handles and tire decals from "Fireball Modelworks" Finally, I added plug wires and a PVC hose, and sourced some gauge decals from EBAY. Hope you like it.
