Starliner Kustoms Posted October 6, 2008 Posted October 6, 2008 Well it's been a long summer and I really haven't worked on much but I did manage to finish this. (I only have a couple of things left so I'm calling it finished.) It's based on the AMT release and is pretty much out of the box with a couple of exceptions. It's painted Tamiya (TS-60) Pearl Green with green and white interior that's been flocked. BMF has been added and parts box wheels and tires hold it up. I gave it a California rake and plan on putting aluminum down drafts out the back. Over all not a bad kit. Lots of options but If you end up with the ominous sink mark in the right front fender good luck. Although I'm pretty sure most if not all of you will find this an easy task to overcome. Anyway thanks for looking and happy modeling.
