70 Chevelle.... My first model.. Rebuilt.

This model... which happens to be my favorite kit and the 3yrs of this body style my favorite car... was the first glue kit I ever had. I had built a few snap kits here and there, but never a glue kit. My dad bought this for me, for "being good" at a relatives house that I didn't like...IRCc.

Originally I put it together without paint, because it was molded in blue. No paint, no decals... then like a month later I dismantled it, painted the body and seats with krylon black, and added the decals. It stayed that way for years. Was dropped, banged around, and then the dreaded shelf fall (That destroyed many of my kits) which left it in pieces. I salvaged what I could, and rebuilt it again... without head headlights, and a few other pieces as well.

Couple months back, I decided to redo the whole... took the original kit, and pieces from another chevelle that was destroyed and rebuilt, to make a complete build. Here's some pics... Thanks for looking!
