Wow! This is what happens when a simple kit meets outstanding technique and skill! Well done.

QR codes... kind of slipped my notice but man! 76 pages! This is astonishing amount of work documenting the skill and creativity and persistence to make this car happen. Truly a master class. Thank you to all at the magazine for including this.

I think the Testors silver paint is almost dry on the trim.

Heck yeah! Handy to have a hatch to haul your stuff in style!

Fine work on this kit. Remarkable detailing on all parts of this beautiful car.

This has been banging around in the junkbox all these years. My Mom had to reach it for 10 yr old me in Hills dept store in the Boardman Plaza in 1963. I had built a few Hawk style model planes but Man! that 63 Corvette was IT! Multiple layers of customization, (felt seats, saw that in a mag), paint, and use as a slot car.

Wow! I had one of these in the 80's. Blue, white top, swimming pool paint in the bed. Pipe for bumpers.The Aquamochine! A primitive beast! Great builds!

Well she's real fine...!

Gnat's eyelash for that antenna in N scale!

The Divco is a Walthers resin kit. A bit fiddly. The Dodge van is like my beloved 74 Tradesman, circled USA twice, replaced 2 slant 6'es, I ran it till it rusted in half. HO scale, sure I build trains too. (and 72 and 48 planes. Like I explained at the hobby shop, I specialize in 87 32 25 and 25 cars and trucks, HO trains, 72 and 48 planes, and the odd boat (Titanic) and some armor.)

A lot of well-done details here! Digging the chute rigging too.

My neighbor 'Hive' in high school had this car, 283 4 speed. Good times riding around, that speaker up in the center of the rear seat blasting! Really a simplistic promo model, I think it has 'the look' though.

Super clean. What a blast!

The attention to the running gear details and the clean execution is exceptional! Well done!

Just glue and screw? Oh my! Thanks for letting us live vicariously seeing this done so well.

What a tuff looking car. Well done!

You have set the bar for the interior work for when I do one!

I still like to see a good tutorial in Model Cars. I can always learn something.

I built this box stock. This was 25 years ago so I don't remember all the individual tricks I used. I only wish the internet back then had such reference material as now on builds and fixes/tricks.

1:24 scale plastic model Basic build, custom upholstery. Another one of those cars my wife said ‘That’s a car I’d like’ so I got her one.

1:24 scale plastic model. Hard to resist a white Corvette racer! And yes the frame tube molding slots are filled! This kit fights back, not the easiest build.

Mold line cleanup on all that suspension is a pain. The bundle of snakes is a cheat! Look close it comes as one piece, it is 'paint detailed.'

The camera is brutal! I need to clean up on that masking.

Is that window screen for the grille?

That looks great! I have 2 bottles of the amber, one is wrong, too light. Great inspiration to use it! Not bass-boat metalflake.
