Here is another one I rebuild restored recently. This is a 70 Road Runner Johan kit. Yes I have quite a few Johan rebuilders and kits in my stash and I love them in the simplicity that they are.  It was a very nice build up so I don't want to say restored, but it was not my work so I rebuilt it. Only issue was once I stripped it I had to redo all the bodywork that was done before. I just had to do this one in Moulin Rouge paint! (Panther Pink for the Dodge boys). And Keith Marks decals on this one as well!

I promised myself that I would get many of the started projects that stalled moving again so that is why most of my builds are restorations. I still have a 70 GTX to redo, and a few JoHan Superbirds to do as well. Not to mention a few more Javelins and AMXs.

Beautiful. Love the pink.

Absolutely fabulous, and again, even more so because it's a rebuild. Only suggestion I could offer would be to cut your side stripe decals where they cross the door lines, but other than that...perfect! B)

Can't wait to see what you'll do with some of those old Javelins.

In the Navy we used to say "bravo zulu".  Or in civilian speak, that's "well done"!

Very clean redo. I like your color choice. Like you I have a few original Jo Hans in the stash and your giving me ideas to build one.
