carro Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 It's finally finished! I really enjoyed building this kit, I ended up breaking the windshield frame on one side while polishing it but l was able to glue it before painting it alclad chrome so it's not visible. It was also a little stubborn to line up the chassis up front but not terrible. Here is a link to the W.I.P. http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/109500-amt-1972-corvette/ here are some outside pics altough it was cloudy when I took them. I do intend to paint the stripes on the hard top and then I will post more pics. (hopefully the sun will be out then) I also dirtied up the chassis, I might still dirty up the engine bay a bit so it looks like it's driven and not a trailer queen.

Hubert Rollins Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 Sharp Vette- I love the choice of color. Great paintwork too- although I know it was achieved with a lot of elbow grease as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allen Wrench Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 I have to be honest ... the stripe scheme is a bit over the top for my tastes. But, thats just me. You did a great job on this build. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrm Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 (edited) Beautiful paint job.I have never built a single Corvette of any kind. Ever. And I have owned five of them in 1:1. Your build definitely makes me want to run and buy one to build right away. Edited March 7, 2016 by mrm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
