Good afternoon friends. It's time to build another model. This time I chose this wonderful box from my collection.

I will be very grateful if you can show me a photo of the car or car model with decals, like in my kit.

In the meantime, I was preparing and finishing parts for painting. The distributor is made from the remains of the sprue. I did not use the one that was in the set, because. it is very small and I could not drill 9 holes for the wires in it.

Looking good, I built the 1st issue way back when it first came out and yours looks to be the same vintage. I started a resto on mine a few years ago. My Dad's favorite build.

Looking pretty good so far.  Love those 409 engines.  The interior and undercarriage looks good with all the detail work.
