Very nice. Is that more of that Testor Icy Blue paint? Whatever it is, the color looks good. 

You are right about the paint. I love that particular color.

I like it!,it could use a little BMF and a wash on the grill.:)

I'm going to talk him into giving the Silver Sharpie a try soon, and that will take care of it. B)

Very nice stock  build. A little extra detailing in the future would really make this a standout. I built one of these when the kit was first issued. Went with the Drag Race parts and opened up the rear wheel wells. After seeing this I think I may just dig it out of the Old Model Boxes in the basement and give it a do over.

Very nice and clean looking Scott! B)

I have to say that this is the first I've seen one of those built in a long time! Just not often seen, and I don't think that one's ever been reissued but I could be wrong.

The kit included some flairs for the rear quarter panels and I used those. I think the hood just has a hole in it and the body is sprayed White. I do like the Purple Haze theme it fits well with the time.

First, I'm amazed by all of the interest this kit has generated here. Thank you for all the kind comments by the way. As far as chrome foil and black washing grilles. You'll rarely see that on any of my builds. I like my models clean and simple looking. Almost promo like. Sorry guys. I will do both. But again, rarely.

Nice build, there was a time when they were about as exciting as watching paint dry, now a restored one would be 4x what they were new.

That drag version is cool, Snake.
