Looks great, I did the standard Testarossa and can relate to your challenges! I like your use of screws to attach a warped body, and have resorted to that on a few cars...saves alot of frustration and really holds the pieces together.

MPC 1957 Corvette, I used the 40 year old Testors spray paint on the body and very happy with the results. Its a very 'cherry' looking red. Going to throw some Cragars on it, and see what other goodies I have in the parts junkyard.

I like how you think! I had seen some similar ideas online...don't think i have anything in my parts junkyard tho.

Very Cool!

I bought this Lambo kit on eBay, turned out to be missing quite a few parts. I also had some 40 year old Testors paint that I want to use up, so figured this was a good guinea pig...also going to be a LOW guinea pig!

Looks great! I think early C3 Corvettes were the best looking body style ever made

Looks nice....similar to Mercurys "Competition Green"

Looks great!

Looks great...and its my favorite year Charger!

Looks nice, Ive never painted a car pink but it seems like it looks best on cars from the '50s. I have a '57 Corvette next in line on my workbench, I will probably be boring and go with red.

Looks great! In the early 80s I was building my 1:1 Nova, project taking more time than expected, waiting on mail order parts, etc., and my brother gave me the Nova kit (kinda as a joke)...it went together nicely and I loosly based it on the real car I was building...so I've always liked that kit. And of course it was the last model I built for over 40 years as I went thru my phase of building real cars.

Nice car! I have a weird disorder where my brain gets distracted whenever I see a Baldwin Motion Camaro...the hood in the background makes me drool!

Inspiring, I built that kit around 1977 and every time I see it I want to build another!

This is the Revell 1:16 scale BMW Isetta, kit went together very nice and lotsa detail. I printed my own decals for the plaid interior and aligator suitcase, other than that its box stock~

Finally added some Yenko stripes, I printed some decals...then a friend showed me some clear vinyl stickers...I decided to go with them. They have a nice glossy finish but are a little thick, and didn't lay perfectly flat on curved areas (like the body line on the hood). Overall I like the look better =)

Looks great! I always thought it was interesting how '61 and '62 Corvette styling transitioned into the boat tail look of the '63, the shape worked well on the older and C2 'vettes.

Looks great...reminds me of Marina Blue, one of my favorite GM colors from that era

1:16 scale, I think this kit came out around 1987

This is an old Testors / Italeri kit, it was a little finicky, lots of test fitting and fine tuning...one of those that you're glad when its done.

like they would say in the movie...looks bitchin'!

very nice! it has the perfect stance

I like the lower fade!

The cloth used started out white, seems like cotton, thin, kind of reminds me of a pillowcase material. I pretty much eye-balled the scale, I looked at pics of Benz' interiors and counted how many rows of plaid there were on a seat. I figured a 6"square would be enough material, shrank down a photo of a sample I found online (red black tartan plaid) and pieced a bunch together in Photoshop to fill the 6" square. Do a search online for "printable fabric for inkjet printers" and Im sure the ready made cloth would be easier to work with...maybe even turn out nicer? I did a quick search on 'Camaro contour fabric' and it looks like its easy to find sample pics that would work.

I believe she just used those 'glue sticks' (kinda like a chapstick type tube of roll-on glue?) the paper peeled of easily
