    A couple of these were started late 2021. Since I finished them in 22 Im including them here. I have a half dozen started in 22 that Im not including so it evens out. 22 is the year I returned to automotive models, and while not all of these are cars I am including them since I am proud of what I have accomplished. No names on these, I'll let the pix do the talking.

    Last post before it goes in the finished section. I have a set of 70 Chevelle mirrors drying that I'll slap on later. PE scripts, door locks and handles are done. I scratched up an antennae because I never put them on my builds but felt it was a nice touch on this car. All that is left is the hood and that looks like it may need some extra work. The attachment areas just dont seem right. It will be a hassle it seems. I will get it but it will take some effort. This was a fun reach into the past in plastic.

    Beautiful build from stem to stern. Unique, and if you put this on a table you would have the only one. I like that idea.

    Serious firepower in the tunage area.

    Color? Something different right?

    Final mock up before I put it together for good. The belt, fan and hose are all in a very tight area and my eyeball engineering held me in good stead. I scratched up some arm rests so all I have left is to install the rest of the interior goodies. Time to button this up because I have The Rodfather on the bench next and I am itching to start that. It's been a sorta Grail for me and Bob (TooOld) hooked me up with a decal set and I have a Tweedy Pie on standby. Thanks for looking in on my Chevelle. It's a plastic time capsule of an era I cherish in my life. I know many here were also there and have fond memories.

    I'm going with these triangular Weiand air filter housings. These were all the rage at one time and are just what the Dr ordered. Idler pulley and bracket are drying and all that is left is a belt and the motor is done. Master cylinder will be installed once this assy is in place.

    Thanks fpr all the kind comments fellas. I am really feeling this one for some reason. I miss my old Vega, and those thoughts are what guide this project. Motor is just about done with fuel and electrical finished. I cannot find the PE fret that has all the carb accesories on it. That has all the throttle bits I need. I have a small bag with bits floating in it and there may be enough there to do it. Also, this kit doesn't come with coolant hoses or a master cylinder. A quick rummage through the parts box and some scratch building took care of the glaring issue.

    Revell's toughest kit by far. You did a wonderful job and it is meticulous in its construction. I would be proud to display such a nodel.

    Extraordinary amount of work. Your passion for this vehicle is obvious with such labor. I will be watching.

    Beautiful build. I like everything about it.

    I will be following along for sure. It already looks the business and it is not even close to being complete. These Top Studuo sets are truly a cut above in terms of added details and I would know. I have the 1/20 McLaren MP4/4 from Tamiya with the Top Studio set as well as the Marlboro decals and the carbon decal set. I am planning on starting it in the spring. I will bw replicating Senna's car of of course. I know the mountain you are about to climb. I will be watching this build closely.

    I would paint the spokes and centers in a dark gray for a magnesium look on those wheels. Watching...

    Beautiful build brother. Black is always tricky and you truly crushed it. Very well done.

    Ready for a museum. These MFH kits are superb. You truly get what you pay for.

    When I saw those blue stripes the Dobbertin car was first thing that popped into my head. The colors are about bang on. The only thing is they are in reverse order dark to light. I got the Chevelle up on 4. The stance is right where I want it.

    Suweeet.... Ya done real good fella, real good.

    Looks awesome, totally awesome! Jefferson let that team have it when his car was found nearly destroyed. Probably led to a 1st round pick. Or at least a full scholarship.

    Beautiful build. Glad to see some trucks come out of hiding. I enjoyed building one and a couple more are planned. A unique subject.
