Outstanding work!

Nicely done!

That's a striking color combo! I like it, well done!

Awesome! I love the cart and bike, and they all look great together!

The car itself looks nice enough, but like most others on here, I hate the wheels!

Thanks Michal! Thanks Steve! I'm sure someone has to make a resin Formula hood, but I'm not sure who. Thanks Larry! Thank you David!

Well, great minds think alike, or pretty close. I have another one of these kits with a second set 20" Snowflakes like the ones on my Blue '79 T/A i did a couple of years ago and this is what I'm doing with them.

Beautiful!! I love the color!

That looks fantastic! Very well done!

Looks good! I remember building this one in the mid to late 80's, and if I recall didn't it have a pre-cut hole in the hood? Even so, if Revell wants to re-release this kit, I'd be happy to buy a few, lol.

Well done! They look very nice, especially for snap kits. I see the Testors Aztek airbrush paints on your bench, and I have to ask if you have used any of them yet and what you think of them? I had been interested in them myself, but they were discontinued before I could try them. Some are available from an online supplier, but I'm afraid to buy them because I might like them and then not be able to get them anymore if I did like them, lol.

Very well done! You did a great job on a terrible kit. Great color choice and a nice paint job, I did mine in Icy Blue with basically the same color interior as yours. I am a fan of these cars and wish there was a better kit for them, as I would do numerous in different hood bird/body colors.

Nice job! Yet another kit that I built in the late 80's - early 90's that I would love to see re-issued.

Thanks guys!

Nice save! I would love to see this one re-issued.

Beautifully done in a great color combo! Great details and I love the wheels!

Nice job on all three!

Well done!

Great job on both!

Very nice!

Well done on both! I really like the green!

Excellent job, it looks great!

That turned out very nice, and yes it is a very good kit!

Thanks Tom! Brushing on craft paints, especially metallics, is much more difficult than with an airbrush as they tend to be streaky and not cover very well. Thanks! Thanks! Thank you! Thanks Larry! Thank you Nigel! I don't have a favorite as yet. The toughest part of doing both at once was keeping the parts organized. My mind no longer seems capable of multi-tasking and keeping track of things since I stopped working a few years ago. The wet-sanding and polishing part was particularly time consuming and labor intensive to me as well. About as much as I'll do anymore is spray paint bodies at the end of summer for winter building. Thanks Steve! Thanks Mike! It's not really a question of need anyways, lol. I almost picked up a couple more on my last trip there last week as well, but decided to limit my spending to the AMT '68 Camaro Z28 and another AMT '55 Chevy. Like you, I have an interest in building them in maybe a color they were not offered in for that year, like a dark green, red, or silver/gunmetal. I also have plans for getting a couple more to do as 1973 versions with the hood bird. So many color/hood bird options, just like the '79's. I hope your HL still has some when you go back!

Thanks, I appreciate it! I was undecided on white or blue, so I bought two and each color, lol. I did not. I lucked out and the script is nicely molded and detailed, so after painting and clear I ever so carefully and lightly painted each letter with Tamiya X-11 Chrome Silver Acrylic. Thanks! I'm trying to make it look like how a car guy, like myself, would have his actual garage. I have a few more additions in mind as well. I'm also slowly working on a "Speed Shop" with an office, restrooms, employee breakroom, and paint booth. I need more space before I get too far with it though, lol.
