Got the blue done today, just need the silver color along the bottom below the trim.. Don't know if I'll get it done soon. Go next month for a reverse shoulder replacement surgery .

Everything spelled SS except for trim and badging! The build sheet showed the 396 was factory installed.

Building a replica of one I owned in the late 70's when we lived in Wisconsin. Will be a metallic blue with whinvoice. It is a car the boys at Team Chevelle said never existed but I had the factory paperwork and dealer invoice. Was a Malibu with a 396 4 speed.

Calling it done.

It was a 21st Century Toys kit. I remember seeing these pre-painted partially assembled. in stores years back.

Didn't do a whole build thread on it as wasn't really impressed with the kit. Was like a screw together promo. Couldn't find decal paper as most of the kit decals fell apart so painter the meatballs. Used Elmers Rubber Cement to stick down the paper templates. Had a minimal amount of bleed that was easily touched up.

Found three dead squirrels in the yard Saturday evening. Called a friend that is a game warden, and she came out and took them in to be tested. Called just a bit ago and it appears they were poisoned with peanuts. I strongly dislike the little rats with fuzzy tails but would never do something like that. Only way I ever killed one was in the woods with a .22 rifle out of a tree and then it became dinner! Haven't done that since I was a kid.

She pretends to sleep but she is just waiting for me to get up so she can claim my recliner!

Need a piece about 3X5 inches.

Really proud of this young Marine! On to infantry shcool.

Go check my wife into the Mayo clinic and say fix what you can and if there is anything left then I'll let them have a look at myself!

Grandson graduated today!

Actually came a couple days ago after taking the long was around thanks to USPS logistics.
