Which part of the body are we talking about? Sorry, couldn't resist.

I have that kit, still sealed (I think), now I need to worry about the vents? I also have the Fujimi 1/16 scale kit, but I would never do this to it. Many years ago, the AZ Copperstate Rally stopped in Prescott, took a couple pictures (with the SLR and slide film, that's how long ago) of a vintage GTO that was a convertible, will do that to one of my kits. Look forward to seeing this come together!

Glad to see the formerly known as Red Baron exhaust tips were drilled out. Did you cut thin strips of decal to do the candy cane tie rods? Fun model!

Well, I live about 150 miles south of the Grand Canyon, so that is just a ditch, didn't want to offend anyone. Interesting about the bridge!

My all-time favorite is still Gumball Rally. Who wouldn't like to drive as fast as possible all the way across the country? It has a Ferrari Daytona with the sweetest exhaust note echoing off NYC's canyons, with arc nemesis Shelby Cobra. You have a cast of different crazy characters to add variety. But the best part for me, is the locations, starts in NYC, then jumps to Arizona, namely my town of Prescott was used for some scenes. That's why the Cannonball Run movies were a hit. And of course Ken Block used the same LA concrete canyons as was used in the final scenes. This would make a cool diorama.

Someone brought in a selection of chisels as these are called, to a model club meeting. I've looked ever since online, and they are usually out of stock! Then I forget.... I'm tempted to make my own, using the disk on the Dremel, and make the hook. So what if it wears out, eh? Thanks for starting this topic. Will stay tuned.

Think I've seen one of these at a contest. Sign of desperation to say the least. I've always had in interest in paper projects. I started this Dragon kit years ago, finished last year. Of course Takom came out with one recently.

Here is where I got them. Don't look at their other stuff, unless you have $$$$. There are also studded snow tires! https://www.spotmodel.com/product_info.php?manufacturers_id=19&products_id=50746

I don't like how all rally car models come with slicks. So the aftermarket has stepped in. I got these from Spot Model. I use foil from cardboard style cigarette packs, when I see someone using up their smokes at the bar, I ask for the pack and they look at me kinda weird.

The patina is very nice. Not exactly in 'barn find" state with a thick layer of dust, but still looks realistic. I like the turquoise too. And the slotted front mags.

from big lasers

I've considered hunting one of these down, but after seeing a Russian model forum where someone was correcting everything, and then stopped several years ago, I dropped the idea. You did great restoring it.

Rooting for you! I got this kit and p-e secret decal too!

Thanks for giving positive thoughts! Scratch-built pumpkin pie:

Sorry, not any Outlaws, but does quantity count?

Toyota Pious, when they were the halo virtue signaling electric car. Nissan Puke. Slummer H2, H3. Pontiac Grandma (I modified someone's Grand Am logo into this)

I know .... foreign car, Tamiya, a bloody Volvo to boot! But have you checked the price on eBay if any come up? I built this a long time ago.
