kjohan Posted September 11, 2023 Share Posted September 11, 2023 Concerning the two reservoirs, checked on the net. Seems the "washer bottle" could be installed in either position, left or right. = Revell have in the kit implemented both. Would certainly result in considerable milage before they would have been empty, probably lasted half a winter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The wheels from Fireball really helped On 9/9/2023 at 10:16 PM, Wolf said: Oooohhh, that’s pretty! Beautifully done. Well photographed as well. That’s the way you do it…… Cheers, Wolf (had a friend in high school that had a ‘69 Firebird convertible in that same colour. I envied him until he trashed the car.) Thank you! I used to prefer the look of 1st gen but 2nd gen definitely has grown on me. On 9/9/2023 at 10:22 PM, Nacho Z said: Beautiful!!! Thanks!

You've done an exceptional job with this build. Thank you! On 9/10/2023 at 3:02 PM, espo said: Beautiful looking paint finish and the trim all looks very cleanly done. Thanks a lot! I masked + airbrushed all the trims even though the texture wouldn't look as great as BMF. On 9/10/2023 at 5:44 PM, karbuildr said: Absolutely gorgeous build in every way. All the details and the effort you put into this kit has made it museum quality for sure. Some of your photos make it look like a real car. Stunning paint work. I'm in admiration of your skill. Thank you! I always chip away tiny bits at a time which help me to not make any big mistakes. On 9/10/2023 at 7:28 PM, rrb124@sbcglobal.net said: Looks like a real 1:1 automobile. Standout!

On 9/11/2023 at 9:52 AM, kjohan said: Agree with all the comments above: Superb Question : in the engine bay there are two rerservoirs (light coloured) One on the left side near the battery One in the front right corner One of them is the for the windshield wash system (assume the one to right) If so, what is the other one ? Reason for question: am now building the same kit , but white (And on a different level) I thought the one nearby the radiator is the coolant overflow reservoir!

AMT68 Posted September 13, 2023 Share Posted September 13, 2023 Absolutely perfect paint work and really has a 1:1 look in the outdoor photos. Rally wheels (which I've found tricky to detail accurately) add to the realism. I've never given much thought to painting tires but I do see the difference you have created versus what's offered in the box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
