Would anyone happen to know what the color of the seat harness is foe the 2017 Ford GT Le Mans car? I found one interior shot, and I think it might be blue, and no idea on the make. How about this car (2022 Camaro driven by Ty Dillon): Again, no idea on color or make as I can't seem to find any interior photos. Thanks.

Beautiful Roadrunner. Well done.

Thought I recognized the shelves. I have a white set of them in my kitchen. Never bought anything from Kent Models, although I have heard of them from Building on a Budget Models on YouTube.

Nice I organized. IKEA shelves? I like the Tamiya paint color posters.

Beautiful Corvette. Well done.

I built this kit back in June 2024, and if I remember correctly, I had some trouble with final assembly as well. Mostly just keeping the darn thing from falling apart. I seem to recall having some trouble with the hood as well, but by happy circumstance, something broke, one of hinges I think, then the hood fit fine. I think Kaci (@kacitgirl) has built the Toyota version of this kit.

AMT Datsun 280ZX Turbo Decal Question
Jim B replied to Jim B's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
Door badges? It's possible, I guess. I've never seen them there either. Strange. No idea what AMT was thinking. Wonder if they're roof pillar emblems? -

AMT Datsun 280ZX Turbo Decal Question
Jim B replied to Jim B's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
For an early 1980s AMT kit, the fit & detail are pretty good. (Can't believe I just wrote that!) Some odd things, like a hole in the fan pully for the engine fan, but no pin on the fan. I'm actually kind of enjoying this one, which is saying a lot for an AMT kit. It's no Tamiya, but it'll look good on the shelf. I just wish AMT had left the rear louvers & spoiler in the kit. -
AMT Datsun 280ZX Turbo Decal Question
Jim B replied to Jim B's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
They really do, but they're too big. Maybe they do go in the floor mats. -
That's pretty neat! Well done. Looks like it's about the size of a MG or Triumph, so it probably doesn't take up much shelf space.

Very nice looking Corvette C4. Well done.

AMT Datsun 280ZX Turbo Decal Question
Jim B replied to Jim B's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
@espo It's possible, but I've never seen a logo like that on the outside of the vehicle. @stitchdup According to the instructions, Decal #13 is for the steering wheel (that itty-bitty one by the gages). The mystery continues! -
Kenworth Challenge Mixer
Jim B replied to Rbray47's topic in Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
Great looking mixer. Well done. -
I started this kit a bit ago And I'm coming up on starting to do some of the decals. (Sorry for the fuzzy pic.) I have figured out where all of the decals go except #10. There is no reference to them anywhere in the instructions, nor can I find anything like them in actual cars in photos online. Since there are two, maybe they go somewhere on the doors? Headrests? Floor mats, maybe? No idea. Any suggestions?
