KWT

Well, I think I'm gonna call this one... After looking at it, I kinda dig it without the decals. I can always add them later on if I feel the need. Gonna add this one last photo here, to kinda tie it up... Gonna add this over to the "Under Glass" with the rest of the photos. Thanks for the interest, the comments, and as always thanks for looking...

Dang Joe, I can see that at a car show right now, with a sneeze guard and bibs to keep the drool away... Looking killer..

Looking good.. diggin that stance

Thanks... Yeah, these are the extra wheels in the in the version with the black and orange on the box, and also the latest one with the red one on the box. I've been toying with getting that one of the bay for a while now... just never pulled the trigger yet. Always finding something else I want more... and something else.. and something else...

Thanks! I sure hope so..

Thanks Richard, I do appreciate it. Got the body, interior and chassis joined this morning. This has me looking at it... wondering if I will use the badge decals now at all... I've stared at it, and think it would look good with them, but I'm kinda digging the look without. Idk, we'll see. Anyway, off to set up for a gig tonight. Me and the band haven't played more than maybe twice all year, which is kinda odd.. should make for an interesting night. Have a good saturday folks.

Good job! I always wanted one of those in high school.. I love El Caminos.

Looks awesome! Good job! There's always been a few hotwheels that I wish where actual kits.. I'd be down..

Thanks, Joe! I do appreciate it.. Not as good as that sweet panel you got going on, but I'm liking it so far. Work picked up this week for the End of Month rush, so I really haven't had any time to work on the Chevelle this week. Made a little progress with the front and rear bumper... Tried to sit the body, interior and chassis together tonight... and wouldn't you know it, fitment issue. Trying to "finesse it" together... SNAP... 2 of the windows popped out and the dash came loose. Ok, maybe finesse is a little of an understatement. Either way, I'm sitting waiting on things to dry in place again. Then it's try, try again.

It definitely changes my outlook on that car... I absolutely hated it til your build popped up. I dig that one.

Thanks, I appreciate.. nice musical references as well..

After searching through my parents basement this past week to find a "I know I built one of those", I ran across what might be the only kits I have left... in descent shape anyway... I do have some brutally destroyed ones. They look like a hwy pile up. I do have a few more boxes to go thru, so who knows. Anyway enough of the boring story... I remember being pleased with how they came out... still am with portions, especially considering I only had Wally World rattle cans and brush enamel... and they bring back some great memories... ahhh to go back.. Anyway, Thanks for looking!

That is one slick Riviera... Thanks for sharing!

It was released thru monogram and revell... There's a 78 w/ camper, a royal knight, one w/ bass boat, and 2 lowriders (a 3n1 that can be built stock and royal knight, camper custom, and lowrider. And also a 2n1). I have several of the lowrider kit in my stash, but have never built one til now. gives you idea what to look for on thE bay

Nice job... thanks for sharing! I've got 2 of these that need to be built.

wow... Like I said on other places, you're skills keep getting better and better. I don't think I could pull off a conversion like that.

Nice Buick you got there.. good job.

Got it smoothed and the windows installed...

Got this in a box of parts... ended up having enough to make the whole kit, but it was pretty rough shape so I didn't do a lot of detailing under the hood. And the chrome was spotty, yellowed, and bare in places. Never had built one of these, so I turned it out quick build style.. Color is Testors Blazin Black... I really dig this One Coat line.. As always, thanks for looking!

That is super slick... Dang, makes me wish I had an airbrush now..

Thanks for the info gents! I do appreciate it... I do know they came out that way... However, I don't dig the look. I feel that it takes away from the beauty that is the engine/heart of the beast, as it's "gets lost" in the mix. If I were restoring one, it'd be black... everything looks good in black lol.

Thanks! Will do... I may have found a set of decals after all, so this bird may not be done just yet..

Thanks, Joe! And thanks for the consultation...

After an earlier discussion with a friend on here, I've decided to sand the body smooth and use the badge decals in the kit. Last time I built models so many years ago, those weren't even an option... Thank goodness somebody decided to start doing this lol. I decided on Tamiya Gunmetal for the base coat couple nights ago. I was gonna cover it with Clear Red, but after looking at it I kinda like it the way it is. Got it cleared with Testors Wet Look friday.. letting it do it's thing.

Got a little more work done on the Chevelle this week. Got the chassis completed and the engine mounted... And the interior is done, to my ability anyway... Still have a little clean up work to do, here and there, but I like how it's starting to unfold..
