RandyB. Posted January 31, 2020 Posted January 31, 2020 Decided I wanted a 1954 Corvette for my collection so I used a 1953 kit to replicate it. Only visual difference between the 53 and the 54 after researching it was the higher output engine in 1954 and the addition of three new colors, Pennant Blue, Sportsman Red and Black. I decided to use MCW factory color Pennant Blue. All Pennant Blue 1954 Corvettes came with a tan interior and tan soft top. Using the valve cover from the 1953 Corvette I reworked it to look like the valve cover on the 1954. I had a set of Keith Marks 1954 valve cover decals that I used to finish off the look. In my opinion it is as close as you can get it considering a 1954 Corvette was never kitted.
Peter Lombardo Posted January 31, 2020 Posted January 31, 2020 Nicely done. There is a guy in my neighborhood with this exact car and in this color. Looks fine.
Gramps46 Posted February 1, 2020 Posted February 1, 2020 Very well done and the attention to details is admirable.
espo Posted February 1, 2020 Posted February 1, 2020 Beautiful looking Corvette. That shade of blue was not often seen and that's to bad since it looks great. The interior here is especially nice also.
