71 Cyclone Decals Done

[unclescott58]

Thank you for all the nice comments. It's painted Testors Grabber Green lacquer, with Wet look clear top coat. The only modification I did, was move the rear suspension forward 1/16 of an inch. I used the Revell 70 Torino kits windows, mirrors and Magnum 500 wheels. This is an excellent kit and is highly recommended. Thanks again, Al

You were able to use the Torino's glass? The rear window worked okay? Other than moving the axle forward a 1/16 of inch, there were no other modifications? No trimming of chassis plate itself? And interior fit okay? Any chance of seeing photos of the chassis?

Still hoping to hear answers to the questions I posted above. I'm really interested in building this kit myself.

Scott, The rear window fir fine. I did remove the rear inner fender wells, they made the rear end stance to high for my liking. The interior did fit better after these were removed. Also the decals came from Keith Marks and they are beautiful.

How's it look now.

Very cool build.

I love all the options resin casters give us.

Thanks for posting your completed pics. Looks much better but still was great looking even without decals.

Thanks for the reply Al. The tip about the rear wheel wells is good to know. Clearity on one thing though, how much of the wheel wells did you have to cut away?

And the Kieth Marks decals really finish off the car. It looks great.

I removed the whole wheel well, because I used a pair of snips and it looked cleaner. Thanks

Just bought a Revell '70 Torino in prep for a future Cyclone build.
