I started work on mine last night. Looks like a well engineered kit.

Very Nice work Raoul!!!

Sad. I really like his work. R.I.P.

I picked mine up yesterday, and in looking it over, so far, so good. I found some sink marks in the hood and in the roof, from the parts being so thin. However, this will not be a problem for me, as I will block the body, and add a primer coat before I paint it. So far, I blocked the hood. and the sink marks have disappeared. I'll get to the rest when I decide to build it. It looks to me like Mobieus has another winner.

I have bought several sets of them, and used them on a few builds. I used the red houndstooth pattern on my '60 Chevrolet convertible. It is pretty easy to work with, but must be top coated with flat clear, as it is quite glossy.

You know I like that one!!!

Coooooolllll!1!!!

Very Nice!!!!

Very nice!!!!

I learned a lot from doing this build. I have another Revell '67 Corvette coupe in my collection, which I may use to do a '1966 Coupe in the future. I had started to restore a chopped up AMT 1966 several years ago, but the project went still born when I was not able to correct the rear fenders to my satisfaction and disappeared into the "black hole" in my basement. I want to replicate the 1966 Corvette my dad considered buying when I was in college. It was Silver Blue, with a White interior. I talked him out of it because it was not a 4-speed, and had the base 300 h.p. engine. Silly me!

Very nice!!!!

Very nice!!

Very nice!!!!!

Those are great!!!!!

A couple of months ago, a gentleman came to our club meeting wanting to have a model built of his one to one car, a beautiful triple white 1965 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible. He had a few pictures of the car as it sits today while it is being finished, and he explained how it was to be finished with some factory options added to it to enhance the car. I had just finished my 2016 Camaro Build, and the project intrigued me, so I offered to take it on. I finished the build last week, and presented it to him last Sunday. He was quite happy with it, and he plans to display it with his car when he shows the finished one-to-one. I was not going to show the built model on the forum, but he gave me permission to show It here. His car is equipped as follows: Ermine White White Convertible Top White Leather Bucket Seats with Black Interior Accents 327/350 V8 Engine 4-Speed Manual Transmission Air Conditioning Power Steering Power 4-Wheel Disc Brakes Tinted Glass Back Up Lamps Side Exhaust Aluminum Wheels White Wall tires I worked from photographs and information supplied by the car's owner, who is now in possession of the build. I used the Revell 1967 Corvette Roadster kit, and made the modifications to the kit using my parts box, skill and determination to build a model as close to the real car as I could.

I have one in my collection to be built. I bought it off of Ebay several years ago. I believe it was Afx in Resin, which is a defunct company. They had some problems with delivering the product, according to some on the board. I had no problems with them, nor their product, which was very cleanly cast. I have to have the bumpers chromed, and adapt it to a '71 Charger for some added detail. I really like the car, and no, I have no intention of selling it. I want to build it. Petty Blue, with black stripes and vinyl roof a white Interior trimmed in black.

Looks good to me!

Nice work!!!!!

I love them all, especially the '60 Plymouth Fury and the '55 Chevrolet Bel Air.

I love those cars, and I have all of them except the '68. I built a '67 and a '70 I am even restoring a '71, which was a poorly built glue-bomb. One thing though, you have to be very careful of that brittle JoHan Plastic, especially on the original '69 and '70's. I have a '69 Eldorado re-builder that cracks if I look at it funny. I have deemed it unbuildable, as it has cracked in several places.

I am not shocked that the '6 Monaco Hardtop went for some crazy money. I have an unbuilt one waiting to built, as well as a '65 Monaco HT which has to be restored. I had an unbuilt '65 Custom 880 Convertible that I bought with a busted windshield pillar. Instead of getting the Modelhaus replacement part, I did this with it. I fell in love with the car after seeing Tom Sheehy's Conversion. I plan to so some more Police Cruisers, but not with such a rare piece. I may do my '65 Monaco this coming year, as a bookend to this one. Black, Black Vinyl Roof, and the Saddle Interior, just like the car on the brochure cover (yes I have one) and display them side by side.

This is, in my opinion, my rarest model. I bought several years ago as an unbuilt kit, and built it myself.

Nyuk,yuk,uk,uk,uk!
