Outstanding! And awesome!

Excellent weathering! Well done!

Very nice! The extra details look great! All of those old Monogram 1/24 scale kits are like that, low parts but great fit and nice molded in details that just beg for extra added details.

Awesome looking Daytona! Beautiful color and excellent paint job!

Thanks guys! Tony, you'll love it, it's a great kit!

Very nice! I always loved the look of the Rallye 350's!

Thanks! I had trouble with the kit decals so the stripes are painted on. Thanks everyone!

Very nice work!

Great looking Caprice with a fantastic paint job! Very impressive results with the Rustoleum clear!

Here's my version of the AMT 2021 Dodge Charger R/T. It's painted in as close to F8 Green as I could get using Createx Pearl Lime with a few drops of Createx Opaque Black to get the proper shade. I cleared it with Createx 4053 High Gloss and gave it the wet-sand, polish, and wax treatment. I had a problem getting the decals to conform to the contours of the front and rear clips, so I just masked and painted all of the stripes on. The interior is all done with craft paints as is the chassis/suspension/exhaust with some AMMO by Mig Aluminum and Vallejo Chrome applied as well. Quite possibly AMT's finest kit, I was impressed with the detail and overall quality of this kit. The fit and finish was excellent on all sub-assemblies, with most connections probably not even requiring glue, although I did glue everything, lol. The final assembly was slightly tricky lining up the pins to the holes on the front and back, but with some patience they did line up. At final assembly, the front and rear clips didn't quite sit flush on the passenger side, although several test fits until then were spot on, but I did glue on the side skirts before the instructions indicated so that might have thrown some things off. Also, the finished ride height is a little high in my opinion, but not overly terrible. These could have been caused by user error so I can't be too critical there. All in all, this is a fantastic kit as most of you already know since I'm probably the last one on this Forum to build one, lol. Anyways, thanks for looking!

Can't remember if I posted these earlier. Picked these up in a trip to Michael's and Hobby Lobby. I got the AMT '64 Chevelle Malibu SS from Michael's, and the AMT 1960 Ford F-100 Pickup with trailer and AMT 1970 Dodge Challenger from Hobby Lobby. Plans for the '64 Chevelle include sourcing a small block Chevy from a kit in my stash, aftermarket wheels and tires, and removing the molded in exhaust to replace it with a scratch-built exhaust. The F-100 Pickup and trailer will be weathered and those plans also include the AMT 1971 Mustang Mach 1 007 kit as a "barn find project" to be on the trailer.

Thanks guys!

Always enjoy seeing a Shelby Cobra, especially in the classic Blue with White Stripes!

Thanks guys!

Thanks guys!

Thanks everyone, much appreciated!

Here is my just completed version of the Revell 1971 Mustang Mach 1 Diamonds Are Forever kit. It's painted in a custom mixed color using Chroma Molten Metals Copper with a few drops of Apple Barrel Black added to darken it. Createx 4050 Gloss Clear was used and wet-sanded, polished, and waxed. The stripes are from the Revell 1971 Mustang Boss 351 kit while the wheels and tires are 3D printed from Mean Machine Models on eBay. The interior is done in Createx opaque black with the kit decals added for the gauges and woodgrain door panel. Bare Metal Foil is on the window trim and I added valve stems and door lock knobs for extra detail. Kit decals were applied to help detail the engine compartment, and I added spark plug wires and heater hoses for extra detail as well. This is an excellent kit, as most have built the Boss 351 well know, with only a few differences between the two versions. I have some build updates including painting and detailing the wheels and tires on my Youtube channel, Stumpy Grump's Scale Speed Shop, for those interested. As always, thanks for looking.

Outstanding!

Looks great, nice job!

Good lookin' Vette! The red one looks pretty good too!

Very nice and a great color choice!

Nice Vette! That was a surprisingly nice kit with lots of details. I had a lot of fun building mine too.

Those are beauties! Well done!

LOL, yes I did. Thanks for the info! To me, the differences are barely, if at all, noticeable, but that's just me. I know there are some knowledgeable folks out there that can spot tiny differences like they're night and day. Personally, I would be fine building an "inaccurate" version using the '81 snapper decals if they fit ok, even if I will get called out for it, lol.

But outside of the fender vents, which most people wouldn't even notice anyways, what are the differences between the '79 and '81 Z28's in real life. Sure a few folks on here will pounce on minute details between the two, but I don't think it would be hard to pass off the '79 as an '81 or even as a '79 using the '81 stripes. Just my thoughts.
