jbwelda Posted September 2, 2006 Posted September 2, 2006 im curious, has anyone built this, now or in the dim past, and really done a good job of it? seems to me as a kid i could never really do it and i was thinking about investing the time in one but am kinda intimidated by all that flimsy chrome!! anyone have photos of a nice buildup?
oldcars Posted September 3, 2006 Posted September 3, 2006 Someone should answer you. I built one back in the 60's. It came out ok(don't have it or a camera). Never built a Revell again for 20 some years due to the mental block that kit gave me. I'm 60 now and the pain is long gone. I say go for it.
Mr. Metallic Posted September 4, 2006 Posted September 4, 2006 I've seen a few built up at shows, but I can't comment on the difficulty of the buildup. I've got it in my head to build up that one box stock someday, trying to challenge myself with some of those fiddlet, high parts count, old Revell kits. I've got a Ivo 4 engine dragster started, and I want to do the Orange Crate and the Roth kits. Someday :?
alan barton Posted September 4, 2006 Posted September 4, 2006 Drew Hierwaterr did a nice one in Scale Auto a few years ago with some very good comments and tips. Both of mine are still half built!
