hookedonplastics Posted February 18, 2024 Posted February 18, 2024 (edited) This kit was from 1988. Molded in yellow. Fought like hell to keep the yellow from bleeding through the white interior. The decals from that time were absolute garbage and didn't react well to MicroScale solvents. In addition the carrier portion of the decals was excessive. The gold striping decals from the kit were so transluscent that I removed them and stole the gold stripes from a 2013 Shelby GT-500 Convertible kit. The paint is factory matched from expresspaints.com. Edited February 18, 2024 by hookedonplastics 14

Yeah Nah Posted February 18, 2024 Posted February 18, 2024 In spite of the decal issues you've ended up with a gorgeous model! 1
vamach1 Posted February 18, 2024 Posted February 18, 2024 Very nice build. I had to double up on the decals as I experienced the same issue. 1
