Resurrecting a 1969 Coronet R/T hardtop glue bomb
kelson replied to Scott Eriksen's topic in WIP: Model Cars
Color looks stunning on that body!!? -
Pretty sure revell made a coupe and convertible promo back then.

Gorgeous looking Bee!!

On a scale of 1-10 , would give this print a 8, mentioned to another forum member the windshield area seemed a little squarish but everything else i liked,my plan is to build it as a 69 'Baldwin motion car if i can find all the necessary parts.

Overall i think its nicely done,i think the windshield area seems a little to squarish but probably can be fixed with a little sanding.

Very creative idea, i will follow this one.
-
Sweet looking Dart!! i love the stance!.
-
Great scratch building skills.?
-
Coming along nicely,good work on the engine/chassis.?
-
Great looking build!, one of Revells fine releases in the nineties.
-
I've debated buying this kit for years,how is the fit and quality of the parts?.
-
Okay getting close to the end,there is no front spoiler in the kit so i resin copied one from the Revell 82'ultra Z camaro and test fit the interior,it needed a little grinding underneath but sits flush now.

Looks good so far.
-
The coupe shows up on Ebay quite often,the prices vary from $50-75 dollars,AMT also made a 91'Z28 coupe which is a little cheaper than the 92 kit,the convertible transkit was made in the early ninties and very rarely shows up on Ebay.
-
Thanks!, it's been a fun build so far. All American Models made the trans kit in the early nineties and i've only seen one build up on facebook a couple years ago,guess he never sold many.i think most of the real 1:1 cars are in the scrapyard now.? Thanks!,i thought i'd try to add a little weathering instead of a perfect showroom look.

Another update,headlights installed and i cast the taillights in clear resin and painted them with Tamiya clear red and orange and testor's gloss black.

As a kid in the 70's we had a 74 Squire in gold with the woodgrain and this kit although it's a 72 brings back memories,and i agree these kits can be really pricey now.I'm still hoping Missing Link will bring back their 74 GTO.

Thanks for the positive comments everyone!....okay so the interior is done i just need to glue the seatbelts to the body/backseat. The chassis is done and so is the engine wheels and tires. Lastly i cast the headlights in resin and painted the backs in Vallejo silver,not sure i'm 100% satisfied with them and may do another.
