realgone58 Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 Just restored this one from a builtup. Missing one spare tire and the separate side window frames are warped, but all in all it was salvageable. Not too often do you see one of these builtup. I am happy to have the box as well. Now to find the Jordan and the Bugatti. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cobraman Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 Those were some interesting kits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Modelbuilder Mark Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 (edited) Very interesting project! Funky spare wheel placement, but those wheels on the car look like actual spokes, in some pictures it looks like you can sees through the spokes. Are they?

68shortfleet Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 Hmmm, I have that kit. Was considering letting it go at the next local swap meet. After seeing these pics, I might have to build it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry P. Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 Does the hood open? Is there an engine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hubert Rollins Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 Great job on the save- but man, that is one ugly car. Were these real or is this a kind of concept deal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Bartrop Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 Great job on the save- but man, that is one ugly car. Were these real or is this a kind of concept deal?They originally started out as a series of illustrations done by Exner for Esquire Magazine, though two of them, a Bugatti and a Mercer, were made into full sized cars.

realgone58 Posted April 25, 2016 Author Share Posted April 25, 2016 Does the hood open? Is there an engine?Yes, but very vague detail, generic engine. I built it as a curbside for this reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unclescott58 Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 Very nice. I like it. I love those Renwal Revival series models. I wish they'd come back some day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HotRodaSaurus Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 Only the second revival I have seen built up, looks great. The profile looks vaguely like an E Type coupe(XKE), the sort of thing customisers had a go at in the 70s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjsipes Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 (edited) Very unique piece. Love it. I've the Exner Duesenberg somewhere in my pile. For those that are interested, here is a webpage that has some info about all the Exner Deisgn Cars.http://www.drivehq.com/file/df.aspx/publish/tonhazelaar/wwwhome/kits-renwal.html Edited May 5, 2016 by jjsipes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
