Hello.....this is a replica of artist Mike Lomaka`s "ITALIVETTE" drawing........I started with a 1/24 Revell 66 Penske Racing Corvette that was given to everybody that attended this years GSL model show......and I used a 1/24 Revell Ferrari Superamerica kit that I won at a the 1st Citrus Nationals model show.......I used the engine and the chassis from the Ferrari and combined the Ferrari and Corvette interior to the Corvette body......alot of modifications for it to work.......wired and plumbed.....flocking,baremetal foil and alclad paint.......body was painted with a H.O.K. white base coat and Dupont "Jarret" red......if you would like to see how I built this model please visit the "Workbench" section .........thank you Mr. Lomaka for the inspiration you gave me to build this model.......thank`s for looking.

Nate.......thank you for your suggestion.......I wish you would have posted this suggestion while I was doing the body work.......the body has been painted and clear coated .......and while I was doing the body work and studying the artist drawing......I missed the slanted vents......I did not look close enough to notice the vents were slanted in the drawing.......maybe when I make the vent doors I can make them seem slanted to give the effect of an angle?........just a thought? -
Jonathan......looking really good.......color is great!
