Massive sigh..... this car has been on and off my bench far too many times for far too many years for various reasons ( mostly fitment issues ) but I’ve finally dragged it across the finish line. It was started as a quick and fun slump buster so I didn’t get carried away with detail, wiring etc. I really just had an idea/vision inspired by those old show car / drag car corvettes I used to see in old Popular Hotrodding and Hot Rod magazines as a kid. Ultimately I just wanted it to look cool sitting on my shelf.

I like it.  My slump busters rarely ever bust a slump, just send me down a new rabbit hole.  M/SP cars were one of my favorite classes, especially blown like yours.  Thanks for posting, now, time for another?

Thank you everyone for the compliments and yes Ron, absolutely time for another! ? I’m on this finish ‘em up kick so hopefully more stalled projects to make their way to the finished column. Happy holidays everyone

These c-1 corvette kits can be built as so many different kinds of racers especially drag cars . The stance looks great and I really like the color and the grills cut out. It looks perfect

Fabulous! Another great build from you, old friend! I LOVE this retro stuff. I bought several copies of this recently and really should Snake-slap one together sometime soon. Well done and model on! B)

Thank you Snake! I’m eager to see what you will do with one of these kits. One major thing I’ve come to notice recently is the older I get the more ideas I have but the less time I have.... and that hand just isn’t as steady as it once was..... oh and the eye site ?
