Hicksie1995 Posted November 21, 2023 Share Posted November 21, 2023 Here’s my Warren Johnson Vega. Took some work but I’m pretty happy with the final product. Wish I would have done a little more research before getting to the painting process but oh well lol. The wheels, and intake are resin parts I had. The valve covers I also had laying in a parts box and the engine is from the revell nova. Other then that a couple small details, a flashy paint job and it was ready for assembly. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yessir I did. Had it right up front lol. Thanks everybody. This was just a build I wanted to throw together pretty quick. Turned into way more when I realized how much I didn’t like the grumpy kit how it came lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
