Watertown Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 Going through some projects that have been stalled for far too long, this project among them. In an effort to clear the deck, I'm opting to forego the added detail of plug wires, plumbing etc., and instead completing them straight from the box. (I did add flocking for carpet, but otherwise only what was available in the kit. Paint is Model Car World 2706 Lt. Burnt Orange Metallic (57 Chevy Sierra Gold). The kit is incredibly detailed, and was a pleasure to complete. Enjoy! 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the Revell kit from 8-9 years ago. Nice kit. The only thing I wish they had done differently, would have been to have the grille and center light bar be separate components. A bit difficult to detail the grille with so much molded in content. Thanks for the comments. Edited February 19 by Watertown Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
