Look Great.

Like the different body color. With a car like this it can help to blend into traffic and not be noticed. Nice wheels and stance.

MPC kits are generally challenging. But they can build to nice models with patience and dedication as your model demonstrate. As others have said, great color choice.

Looks good!  I am a Cragar wheel fanatic, LOL!  Are your's kit stock or aftermarket?  Looks like no rear offset? 

Well done!

Well done Al! And I especially love the "Rocky Balboa" monicker

It may have been a fight, but you won. Nice looking car.

Looks good!  Nice work.?

I started this kit recently but shelved it after doing a little research on here.  It’s gonna take a bit more work than I’m prepared to do right now.  But I’m hoping to get back into it this winter.

Barry, the wheels came from the parts box, likely from some kit...
