realgone58 Posted November 17, 2015 Posted November 17, 2015 I've had this kit for years, and just finished restoring it. It's done out of the original MPC Road Runner annual, correct Sebring vinyl top and trim, and flat hood. Color is rare one year only Mist Green with black interior and top. The wheel covers are actually correct, the premium Satellite wheel covers, commonly called turbine wheel covers. Only piece I am missing is the rear valance panel, which can be added as soon as I find one. Oh, and for Harry, a set of mirrors!
Modlbldr Posted November 17, 2015 Posted November 17, 2015 Nice looking build. Don't see many of these.My neighbor when I was growing up had one of these in Baby blue. One day his wife ran into a forklift that had its forks raised about three feet off the ground. Ran one fork through the passenger side of the windshield and the other ripped about halfway down the length of the passenger door! It was a good thing it was on the passenger side.Later-
