ModelcarJR Posted November 18, 2023 Posted November 18, 2023 This one is done! Painted Dupli-Color Bright Aqua Metallic exterior, Krylon Khaki interior, Tamiya Orange engine block. Plug wires and fuel line added to the engine. I may still add heater hoses. The kit was and old Revell/Monogram kit from 1996 so the decals disintegrated on me, even with a coat of clear lacquer. I got the small ones to work and fortunately had another set from a more recent kit for the hood stinger. It went together well but there is a lot of detail with tiny parts. Thanks for looking! ? 7
karbuildr Posted November 18, 2023 Posted November 18, 2023 Beautiful color, very nice engine and engine compartment. I've built this kit myself and I agree, lots of tiny fiddly parts.
Classicgas Posted November 18, 2023 Posted November 18, 2023 Beautiful. You should photograph it on white poster board.
rrb124@sbcglobal.net Posted November 19, 2023 Posted November 19, 2023 Fun to see. That engine pops! One of the best Vettes made.
Nacho Z Posted November 19, 2023 Posted November 19, 2023 (edited) I really can't add much more than what has already been said. Just an all around great looking Vette! Edited November 19, 2023 by Nacho Z Typo

Zippi Posted November 19, 2023 Posted November 19, 2023 That Bright Aqua Metallic is a Great looking color and the red line tires are a nice touch. Nicely done.
espo Posted November 19, 2023 Posted November 19, 2023 Great looking body and interior color combination. Like the engine detailing.
ModelcarJR Posted November 20, 2023 Author Posted November 20, 2023 Thanks, everyone! I appreciate all the very nice comments! ?
ncbuckeye67 Posted November 20, 2023 Posted November 20, 2023 Very nice! I love the tan interior, it looks great with the blue. I built the convertible version of that older Monogram release, and had the same issue with the decals. I emailed Revell of Germany, and the sent me a free replacement decal sheet!
slusher Posted November 22, 2023 Posted November 22, 2023 Beautiful paint and build on your corvette John, excellent work my friend!
