espo Posted June 7, 2022 Posted June 7, 2022 This is a Revell '68 Firebird 400 Ram Air 2'n1 kit. I have started it as pretty much a stock Ram Air and opened the hood intakes and the cowl vent. Tried lowering the front just a little but the tire diameter doesn't allow for much. I don't usually do a lot of kit decals, but this has some nice small detail and trim decals, so I used those. I wanted to see hoe the HO decal would look on the side and painted the rear tail panel a flat black to tie in with it. Hope to get the foil work done in the next couple of days so I can put this in the show this weekend. 6
bisc63 Posted June 7, 2022 Posted June 7, 2022 That interior looks absolutely real! Very nice shade of gold you've got there as well.
Modlbldr Posted June 7, 2022 Posted June 7, 2022 Nice looking color and paintwork! I'll be watching this one. I loved building this kit years ago and have wanted to get another one. Later-
David G. Posted June 7, 2022 Posted June 7, 2022 That's a beautiful shade of gold. The interior is excellent, the flocking or texturing you used for the carpet looks perfect. David G.
