Chuck Most Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 MPC kit that's been lowered, fitted with 454SS wheels and newer Firestone tires, and painted in Testors Mythical Maroon and Diamond Dust. It also has seats from the 454SS, a tonneau cover from the phantom dually kit, and a 5.3 LS engine from a Revell 99 Silverado. This kit fought me for whatever reason, despite the fact I've built essentially this same kit numerous times. 🤣 I also wanted to use up the last old can of Mythical Maroon I had laying around. Unfortunately it didn't hang around long enough to coat the hood. So the hood is Tamiya Mica Red. In person it doesn't even come close to a match but in the photos it looks presentable. 🤣 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ncbuckeye67 Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 That's pretty nice! I love the two-tone combination. That Mythical Maroon was one of my favorites too. So much so, that I was going to paint my current w.i.p. (Shelby Charger) with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vincen47 Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Nice work. Have you picked up any of the resin 3d printed aftermarket grilles for the GMT400 series? I just ordered one last night off of eBay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't tried the other ones...yet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1930fordpickup Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24  Body Colors, wheels, and stance came out nice. The miss matched oaint on the hood fits with this comeing from the years of repainted factory paint up here in Michigan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
