Fresh off 'da bench! Built from this kit

Obviously the custom option got my attention. Nicely detailed kit and went together OK for the most part. Front bumper and grille+hood trim piece assemblies were very fiddly, and mine being slightly warped didn't help matters much. Metal pins for the custom brakes/suspension were hitting the custom wheels making them impossible to say put, so they were left out and directly glued to the plastic backers going in the brakes.

Aside from a '59 Corvette steering wheel (the stock unit broke on the tree) and flame decals from the '66 Malibu, this one's pretty much OOB with it's custom option.

Exterior is Tamiya TS-92 Metallic Orange cleared with Pledge.
