  4. I got this in a trade with Bill Giles (Steamboat).. Nice kit, paint on the body is Duplicolor GM Aqua Blue with Aleenes clear gloss, interior paint is a mix of acrylic craft paints( blacks light met blue) & Tamiya acylic darker blue met. I love building these multi piece interiors with separate sides & seats, decals for the dash... These are alot more fun to build then the bucket interiors...

  9. This arrived today, I hate these kind of boxes, they just look cheap & offer little protection.. The box may be ratty but the contents are in sealed in baggies in 100% shape...I figgure containing the parts will be a good use for the LA Street Chopper box & it slides right in the kit covering...
  10. I added a floodlight on the bow using a partsbox headlight lens & a chrome pen, detail painting was done with acrylics, same as the base... The lettering on the nameplate is done with chrome pen over acrylic gloss black...This is one of those quick & easy builds to get out of a rut...

  12. From what I understand this is a heavily modified reissue of the Aurora Seaview, one difference is the Aurora issue was the 8 window movie/1st season seaview, years2,3,4 had the 4 window version , another difference is the addition of the flying sub bay doors on the underside...

  17. Thanks for the compliments folks ! I rode a 72 XLCH from 81-89 I'm short so I had to modify the rear suspension with cut down shocks, she served me well till some drunk jabrone in Springfield Ma. ran a redlight & I T-boned him.. At any rate, I wish that Revell would repop the Electra Glide or police bike, I could have alot of fun with this kit & one of those... BTW rocketman, stretched downtubes like the one on your chopper look alot better with a long front end then modifying the neck & increasing the rake, I've done some welding to modify frames & that's what I always sugggested, it made it more stable..Was that a custom frame on yours??? Its looks alot cleaner cuz you have to cut (notch) & weld the top rail if you stretch the downtubes...
