  2. Tough looking Nova. really well done.
  3. Thanks. Ok, we'll skip that one, then.
  4. Thanks, guys. @Pierre RivardYes it does make a nice replica, but it sure was a challenge getting there. Not exactly a "relaxing build".
  5. Really nice-looking Camaro.
  6. Thanks, guys. I appreciate the kind comments. @bbowser I don't know if it's a former Heller kit, but I'm pretty sure it's a former Fujimi kit. @Gramps46 The color I used for the fan & any of the "fiberglass" was Testors Model Masters Afrika Mustard 1955 (FS30266).
  7. Thanks, Hanjo. I'm definitely glad it's in the display case.
  8. Here is my build of the Revell/Fujimi 1970 Porsche 917KH: The fit on the kit was sketchy at best. Lots of very small attachment points with questionable locations at times. The rear frame is a prime example of this (lots of small parts & very fiddly assembly). Overall, I am moderately pleased with the results. No, all four tires do not touch the ground at the same time (usually), no, the windshield wiper doesn't actually touch the windshield, and no, the windows don't fit into the body. The fit of the rear body to the chassis was a complete nightmare and caused this car to almost be binned at several times. I've really liked the 917 for a very long time, and I've wanted one in my collection. Am I happy that I have one in my collection? Yes. Would I build this kit again? Absolutely not! Well, here it is, warts & all. Color is Tamiya Italian Red TS-8. The light has been repaired since this photo was taken.
  9. Nice Road Runner.
