James2 Posted February 21, 2018 Posted February 21, 2018 Just getting started on this one, let's see where it leads. Plan is to be shiny on the outside and unfinished on the inside.
Bob Ellis Posted February 21, 2018 Posted February 21, 2018 Too bad there will be no more of these kits
James2 Posted February 21, 2018 Author Posted February 21, 2018 Rumors of this kit continue to circulate. Dont count it out yet!

Austin NJ Posted February 24, 2018 Posted February 24, 2018 What happened to them re-releasing that kit? I remember Revell at the NNL East saying they were going to in 2018... did something else pop up and now they aren't supposedly going to release it anymore? By the way, your coupe looks really cool with that blue paint and black wheels with hubs and rings.
misterNNL Posted February 24, 2018 Posted February 24, 2018 Looking great. I like the exterior visor with the lightning holes for a period piece. With a blown V8 a real one would be a hand full at full throttle. Thanks for sharing.

I'm sure the Hobbico bankruptcy has had an impact their release schedule...already seen many kits delayed a quarter or two..
geewhiz Posted February 25, 2018 Posted February 25, 2018 Looks darned good, James!!! The color is cool so I'm looking forward to seeing the progress!!!????????
James2 Posted February 25, 2018 Author Posted February 25, 2018 Thanks guys, I have run into a few things. 1. Buy mixing build "A" and "B" parts there are some fitment issues. The blower belt hits the front cross member when installed at the trans location. Moving it back to clear that point, the firewall now interferes. Both problems can be fixed pretty easily. I did adjust the engine set back already, next I believe I'm going to file the FW done so as to move it back into the body some. 2. Trying to keep a balance between Black and Chrome is somewhat challenging. I press on...
James2 Posted February 25, 2018 Author Posted February 25, 2018 Thanks Carl. Nothing glued in place yet but I think I have things figure out.
