Motor Max 1/24 2005 Corvette

[Snake45]

Bought this at a toy show for $5 or $3, I don't remember which--a guy was selling a HUGE collection of Corvette promos, diecasts (all scales), and a few builtup kits, cheap. Too bad I'm not into 1/18 as he had several VERY nice ones at VERY cheap prices. I already had one of these in solid red, but fell in love with this burnt orange/rust/brick red color. 

Not a lot of Snake-Fu to do on this one. Sanded tire treads, brushed wheel spokes with decanted Krylon Satin Clear, did some detail work on front park lights/turn signals. Both the front and rear side marker lights were in a sort of copper or goldish color, so I did the fronts in amber and the rears in Clear Red Acryl. This is another car that I like, but not enough to spend $20-$30 on a kit and 30-40 hours building, painting, and polishing it. Couple hours work tops, $5--on the shelf, DONE!
