Woot! A great little kit. And yeah, let's hope its 3n1 still ...

Wow! What could have been. I had a 1990 Regal - such a love/hate relationship with that car.

This is a stunning build. Really well executed.

Wow! Beautiful! I just started one of these. Would love to see more pictures!

Whoa! Groovy, Man!

Stunning! These look perfect in blue.

Oh, wow! That is tremendous!

That looks great! Not necessarily my favorite driver, but I had a diecast (matchbox, hotwheels, generic?) that I got from Hardee's when I was a kid and always loved the scheme. Beautiful work.

I like this - the black on red is really sharp. Nice work!

Beautiful execution.

Epic! Really, really well done.

This is the coolest Nascar build I've seen in a while! Nicely done.

Wow, that is awesome!

Thank you for the kind comments. The kit, as others have noted, is kind of fiddly. But, it has potential. I did attempt to print up some decals on a color laser printer to make the "plaid" seats. It looks so-so in the pictures, but I wasn't super happy with the results. There is a bit of a bow in the chassis on my sample, which I should have worked harder to fix. I'd like to build another; attempting to remove the fender flares as others have mentioned trying. It's amazing what you see in the photos that you don't notice just looking at the model. Oh! I did strip the chrome and use Alclad II (first time) on the bumpers, grill, and side pipes. So, I broadened my horizons a little bit with this build.

Where's the LUV? This is the recent reissue of the Monogram Chevy LUV and the kit features all the great - albeit improbable - features of a 1970's small truck - Chevy small block v8, sidepipes, impossibly wide wheels (with 8! lugs), over-exaggerated fender flares, etc. I built it with the groovy UFO themed decals featured on the box art. Painted with Tamiya acrylics and weathered with Tamiya panel line washes and cheap pastels. I was feeling pretty good about it all until I broke the front valance from the body during final assembly. My sample had a slight warp/twist to the chassis which I should have worked harder to remedy. I added the rearview mirror, fuzzy dice, and printed some plaid seat decals. Otherwise, what you see is what's in the box. Anywho, on to the next build ....

Awesome work!

Thank you all for your endorsement of Kris' products. Based on recommendations, I ordered several parts and they recently arrived. Crisply and beautifully cast and it looks like very little clean up is necessary. Highly recommended!

Really great work on fixing the wheel arches!

Nice beater!

this is still the coolest build I've seen in a while!

These cars look great in blue.

I've enjoyed your work on this, Anthony - Any updates on this blast from the past?

Really nicely done. I like the interior with it's "lived in" look. Where did you source the drive-thru cup?

These are so awesome! Do you have a picture showing the entire fleet?

I love this forum. This is why....
