Great machine. I have that kit and hope my engine turns out that well with the ignition wires. Your color choice is an attention getter.

Striking collection. This set is worthy of it's own large lighted glass case located in a prominent place.
-
Thinking that I heard about a late summer release. Pumped about the kit as we see them on the streets and it's a tease!

Killer. Even a Keith Black Hemi engine builder decal. Deployed drag chute is realistic.

I remember years and years ago when it came out. My little brother got it for birthday. We both tried to get it to stick together with what we had for glue!
Yours is Bingo!

Over the top! Great machine and thanks for the historic information.

Tuff stance. Great photos. The highlighted interior shot through the roof is unique. Orange and gold is fun to see.

Great to see this. Haven't seen it before.

Well, here's a kit I've had in my stash for over 40 years. It's been on the workbench, started and put back up many times. It was listed as one of the most difficult kits in the forum and I must agree. It was frustrating, had very poor fit, most parts did not want to stay glued. I did an engine swap which made it more difficult. OOB mostly and I must say I will not do another. I don't remember my Orange Crate build as being this frustrating. I'm glad to be done with it.
All that work sure paid off! It looks fast sitting still. Good colors. The chopped roof is cool. I don't understand how any manufacturer can't be considered about quality control. These older hot rod kits are a blast and I would try to build more if they weren't such a pain.

Great build everywhere you look! I haven't started mine yet but will do silver color. With all of the new versions of the original kit out, I had hoped they would have the 421 fender emblems on the decal sheet but none so far.

As a former owner of a real 1974 GTV I'm keen to see details. wonderful model!

Sinister! Fun to see. That dropped front axle is very cool. Thanks for this.

Long time Alfa fan. Have owned six. My first was a new 1977 Alfetta Sedan. Nothing like the early sedans. They were almost as fun as my 3 Spiders! Fun to see these models. Thanks for posting.

First one I have seen built. Really great! I hope that when I start mine I have similar results. Thinking that my box art shows the color orange.

Wow! This machine looks like it is in a 1:1 car show. The color and the chrome jumps. Really like looking at the engine.
-
Nice! I built it too and you are right, the interior panels/rear wheel housings etc are tough to get right. Front suspension is fiddly. Yours looks just right.
-
Fantastic interior. Checking out the 409 emblems too!

Panasports/Minilites and side drafts!

It's a fun build. Wish I would have done my wiring in blue like yours. Did mine in black. The front and rear suspension looks resto mod when finished.

Im going to try to put 421 emblems on the front fenders like a lot of them had on the drag racing version. I bought that kit year's ago. First release.

Great build of a champion car. Thanks for the review. Great to have information when considering a build. Saw a real non race version of the car in person once and they are a knockout.
