Hello again,with warm weather all around time to build a ragtop!,had this one is the stash at least 20 years.The article from Tim Boyd in Finescale Modeler March/April 2024 is a little motivation and a little guideline to follow. Chose Mosport Green as it's not commonly seen,kit does also have a big block hood,but i wanted a small block. Like the Fine scale buildup i painted the interior Tamiya Dark Green and will paint part of the dashboard matt black.Since the kit valve covers appear to be L79 covers i swiped the intake from the 66'Nova and weathered the chassis lightly to represent a car driven spring/summer only.I also used some AK interactive Rust on the exhaust manifolds.

Hello everyone,with warmer weather out it's hard not to think about summer nights and cruisin in a convertible with the top down.That's what's inspired this build,i'm using an old Shawn Carpenter resin convertible,i bought back in 2001. The donor kit The plan was to paint the car Evening Orchid Poly but the color didn't flatter the body lines at all!!.So going with code 983 Goodwood Green which is very close in hue to code JJ Cypress Green metallic. Since the car will 327 powered i robbed the 327 from the 64 Impala,i also have the MCG P/E set as well and some extra parts from the parts box Since the impala has a auto transmission,the plan was to modify the chevelle console but the auto/manual consoles are quite different so i just cut the transmission off a vette engine and mated it to the impala block.That's all the progress so far.?
