michelle Posted June 8, 2023 Posted June 8, 2023 (edited) this is a original mpc 75 open roadster corvette kit I got in a trade from Fordf-100 I did have to do a tire swap as the tires did not want to fit right with the factory stock rims I also had fit issues with the front clip and the body I also accidentally break the suspension parts for the front wheels when I was trying to find replacement tires that would fit Good I painted the body Tamiya ts-60 pearl green and brush painted the interior with a darker metallic green acrylic craft paint and applied a matte clear coat to take away most of the shiny finish the dark metallic green paint has I used the kit supplied 4 rotor wankel engine Edited June 8, 2023 by michelle 7
Rattlecan Dan Posted June 8, 2023 Posted June 8, 2023 Well...you've done it again Michelle. Don't think I've ever seen a Vette that color before. And never heard of a Vette with a Wankel engine? You have broken new ground. You're an innovator.

You're an innovator. thank you i choose the 4 rotor wankel engine cause i never heard of it before and it kinda looks like a v6 engine with the placement of the air cleaner off to the side of the block and as for the color of the body that was from the box art it had one of the 3 options you could build it as on the box art had a light green color so thats why i painted it that color Edited June 8, 2023 by michelle
karbuildr Posted June 8, 2023 Posted June 8, 2023 Now that is so kool. I like the colors you chose, and that Wankel engine, way to go Michelle. I had that same kit a long time ago and never did get that front bumper squared away.

Bainford Posted June 9, 2023 Posted June 9, 2023 Nice Vette. I dig the colour. Cool to see one built with the optional Wankle rotary engine.
