foxbat426 Posted July 5, 2018 Posted July 5, 2018 (edited) 1/32 Lindberg 76 Pontiac Ventura. It’s a snap-fit so I got to concentrate on paint and foiling. A nice change of pace. This was my fathers/family car back in the 70’s. Actually that one was a 71 or 72 and by 76/77 it was a real beater. Good memories though. Hope you like the pics. I finished this one up about a week ago. On a 1/32 the foil was a bit of a PITA. Edited July 5, 2018 by foxbat426
'70 Grande Posted July 5, 2018 Posted July 5, 2018 Wow! That is excellent and tiny work! Are those front fender emblems hand-painted too! If so, amazing detail work. One suggestion; it looks to my eye like you might have mounted the rear bumper upside down. Still a fantastic little Ventura!
ewetwo Posted July 5, 2018 Posted July 5, 2018 Great job. I feel the same way about the back bumper. It looks upside down.

rickcaps55 Posted July 5, 2018 Posted July 5, 2018 Wow ! very nice those 1/32 kits were around had some other cars that I wish they had made in 1/25th you did a nice job . someone already said it the rear bumper is up side down easy fix. I just started on the MPC 1/25th of that model it was in my stock for 15 years untouched I picked it up at a side walk sale for $3.oo it was never built all the parts are still on the tree.
espo Posted July 5, 2018 Posted July 5, 2018 Nice finish especially being 1/32nd scale. This is one of the few 1/32 that looks like the intended subject. Ya the bumper is an easy fix, don't ask me how I know.
foxbat426 Posted July 5, 2018 Author Posted July 5, 2018 Haha. You guys are right. The bumper is on backwards. Going to need my magnifiers for everything I guess. Thanks for a great forum!

foxbat426 Posted July 7, 2018 Author Posted July 7, 2018 Hard to find them. A re release would be nice.

foxbat426 Posted July 7, 2018 Author Posted July 7, 2018 So if they have it, they’ll build it if you request it?
