Been looking for one of these at a good price for a long time. I passed on getting one of these when it was first released and the prices just kept climbing on them. I finally found one at a steal on eBay! It's not a bad kit, but I feel like they could have done a bit better.

My ADD was kicking in today, so I dug this one out and did some work on it. Stole this pic from the web but this is the kit I have. Here's the body ready for clear coat. I'm leaning toward trying out Future on it. Maybe a mix of Future & Simple Green. I read on swannysmodels.com that the right mix of those leaves a killer wet-look shine. I'm hoping clear coat will brighten up the yellow decals. They look kinda pale as is. Anyway, once that's done, I'll come back & shoot the hood semi-gloss black. As a side note: this is the first car I've done panel lines on. I'm not a fan of that normally, but I thought I'd try it out here. VERY subtle effect on this shade of blue (which is totally cool by me). Engine is ready for final detailing and some black wash for a lightly used coating of grime. I was going to black out the ridges on the valve covers, but a quick internet search showed they didn't come that way. So I'll give them a light washing too just to add a little shadow. Nothing to dramatic.
