Pretty ! When I saw this new post, I expected to see the Monogram '78 Vette, I had completely forgotten this one. Your build is right, all the problems that you met during assembly don't appear on the finished model.
-
I like these Fairlanes & this model is very interesting. The roof is clearly wrong on the Amt body but you managed to correct that successfully.
-
I haven't seen too many of these built, so I'm quite happy to see yours. It looks fabulous in this great colour, especially with the color-keyed interior. Great job !
-
A massive thank you to all of you ! 😀 I'm glad that you like it ! Gil, you are right, a clear coat (especially the PU ones) would make it too shiny considering the year of the car. In order not to burn through of the paint, I started wiht a not too agressive sanding grit (3600 if I remember well).
-
A fantastic job ! I love the 1:1 car & your model is stunning, with great paint & the wheels are spot-on.

I like too obscure rides & this one definitely is ! Very very nice model, congratulations !

You are right : the main problem is that gasoline is absolutely out of price in France. Fortunately, now, with the internet, it is easier to maintain/restore American cars 👍

Hi everyone. I have just completed this Amt '62 T-Bird. This kit is really great, I enjoyed every moment of its construction. I added an MCG photoetched set for the extra details (since it is a convertible, the interior is highly visible). The paint is Tamiya Pearl Green, without clear coat but sanded/polished. Thanks for looking !

Oh ! What a fantastic & unsual model ! Believe it or not, a guy near my home has an early 70's Cutlass, very similar to this one ! (& Olds are not really common in France).
-
To my eyes, it isn't faraway from perfect : fabulous paint, perfect details... A killer model !
-
Thank you for your help Bob ! I am not part of Facebook but I have seen lots of these models for sale on eBay.
-
Super ! A very original car & a superb result.
-
I plan to buy this one soon (I'm fan of vintage show rods/show cars). Thank you for your advices, it will be of great help. Your model is great, superb paint & flawless building !
-
Oh !!! What a splendid model ! I really like it a lot. The burgundy interior perfectly matches the white body.
-
Great model Kaci, congratulations ! We are more used to see mk1 (& mk2) Golfs, so I'm really happy to see this one. The color is great & the wheels are fabulous. I can't see any problem with your plastic arches, you did a great job. I'm like you, I mask the area & cut around the arches. I did that on my mk2 Revell :

Excellent ! I didn't even know that X1/9 kits existed... Your model is fantastic. It's been years & years since I last saw a 1:1 one.
-
A big thank you to all of you !

Hello I have just completed this '59 Ford that I had bought years ago at Resin Realm. The kit has several errors : it features a rear bench seat, full wheel covers..., which are wrong for a business sedan. I corrected the interior by painfully removing the rear seat & scratch building a cargo rear area. I replaced the wheels covers by Revell's '57 dog dishes (they are identical). I chose an all-black color scheme because I wished to replicate a kind of moonshiners' car, a sleeper with a plain jane look but a powerful engine to deliver the booze & escape the cops.

Lovely little Mopar, great model !

Ouch !!! This Laguna is just fantastic ! You did an incredible job ! I like it very very much (yet I'm a die-hard Ford fan lol !). Where can we find those famous 3D kits ?
-
Incredible ! A lot of work on this one. Congratulations !
-
The design of these Willysses is really weird but I kind of like them. I like your model very much.
-
I didn't know this model. But you achieved a fantastic job !
