The Bird Is The Word

I found out that my photo storage service lost most of my pics (that was money well spent ?). I took new pics this morning. They are better than the old ones anyway.

This is a Modified / Sports car. This class was for Corvettes, T - Birds and other cars that NHRA deemed to be Sports Cars. Essentially Gas class cars. Eventually these cars were dumped into the Gas classes. 

I made the headers from solder, the roll bar from metal tubing and the tonneau cover is sheet plastic with rivet detail via a pounce wheel. I printed the decals too.

Incredibly nice build, I really like that you worked with different tones and gloss in addition to the detailing. It is an AMT ?

Thank you. I'm pretty sure that it AMT . I got the body from a model car junk yard
