I did the same thing. I built the white one just to get a kit built and then I did a red one with a little more intensity to replicate my 1:1 Coronet. Good job.
Great build and I remember the show. Back in 1974 I built the Corvette kit in white based on the television show too. Yours looks way better than mine ended up. I think I still have it somewhere in my storage. Thanks for the memories.
