I guess I'll quit lurking around the WIP threads and jump into the fire with the rest of you. This AMT 1989 Corvette ZR1 is my 4th build as an adult, but it's my first to put into a WIP thread. To get started I removed the chrome pieces and dropped them in a bath of Super Clean to strip. While that was going on I prepped a few of the parts that will be black to get them ready for paint. As expected, there is a bit of flash here and there and some of the parts need a bit of extra attention, but I'm ok with that. I figure if I can learn how to make an older AMT kit look pretty good, that will help make nicer kits even easier. I haven't decided on a body color yet, but I plan to do the wheels in aluminum and the interior in black and tan, so it'll be something that goes with that combo I suppose. Unfortunately there is nothing much to post just yet, but I'll make sure to update my progress as I move along.
