    I have a book that shows the firing order for various engines,then i usually will pull the correct wires to each half of the distributor and then insert them into the bracket.I don't have the skills to make the brackets,i use a Detail Master P/E set.

    Thanks!...Usually just google the car and look at multiple engine pics and interior/exterior pictures as i can,luckily i also have a fairly deep parts box.?

    Mail call over the last couple days.? Really excited with this one,as i always like something different a 3d printed 1969'Dodge Polara convertible, i don't have 69'Dodge colors in my stash so i'll probably build this one next year.

    Part.3,so i attempted to weather the chassis,but i'm gonna need some more practice!!? Decided to add sparkplug wires. I wanted to improve other areas,so the headlight and front lights and the taillights were scribed out and will make resin copies,i also had to scribe the lines on the spoiler as their were none. Lastly the body is painted,couple small flaws that will need sanding out.

    Part.2,the interior is painted Testors Sand and the convertible boot is painted Testors Wood. Masked the body and painted the engine Chevy engine blue Interior is complete,kit doesn't have armrests,so i made resin copies from Monograms 78'Z28

    New build in the works,since my 65'malibu build is fighting me,Revells 1981 Z28 convertible,motivation for this build comes from an old 1980 Charlies Angels episode called 'To see an Angel die'where cheryl Ladd's character is in Hawaii driving a 1979 Z28 convertible and is kidnapped.When Revell released the 81'coupe with different decal colors last year i decided it's a good time to build this kit. My color choice. The wheels and tires in the kit are horrible!,so i grabbed a extra set of 86/87'Monte Carlo wheels from my parts box. The engine block has incorrect valve covers,so i cut them off and added correct valve covers from AMT's 1990 release 70.5 Z28 The steering wheel on the left is incorrect,the correct steering wheel can be found in AMT's 72'nova or MPC's 75'Vette.

    Looks like you have Mpc's 1976 firebird Formula judging by the hood.

    I've done heat staining on some of my builds it's pretty easy and adds some extra detail underneath.?
  22. kelson

    I actually bought one of those transkits back in 1999 and another off ebay 10+ years ago it wasn't in the best of shape.But i did build one last year and it was a great build,color is mist turquoise

    Great looking build?, i seem to remember a news story back then about the yellow paint either darkening or fading when being exposed to the sun.
