kelson Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 Wrapped this build up on Sunday,good in some areas,but difficult in others,color is MCW Saddle Tan,keith Marks Decals and P/E that comes with the kit.I didn't bother with trying to use the P/E hinges that are included or the plastic hinges either. Despite doing lots and lots of sanding couldn't get the trunk to sit flush. 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
espo Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 Great looking showroom style build. The paint finish looks nice and smooth with a mid '60's look. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FoMoCo66 Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 Looks great! Maybe you could just display the car with the trunk open. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ncbuckeye67 Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 That looks great to me! I love the inside detail of the trunk, why not prop it open? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RickJ Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 Beautiful build! I learned to drive in a 63 Chevy II the same color with bench seat. Lot of good memories driving it. I've got a 64 Möbius kit partially build. Thanks for sharing pics! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watertown Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 Looks fantastic, Curtis! I've got one of these, along with a 60 Pontiac kit Trumpeter offered. I'll have to dig them out. I've heard they're not for the faint of heart, but yours looks great! Nice work. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XYHARRY Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 Very nice showroom Nova there Curtis. I believe the trunk inside brace needs to be attached to the trunk skin whilst in the closed position. This also applies to the hood. Really well done on a difficult kit. Cheers, David. 😎👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a nice kit in spots,but all the interior/exterior chrome trim needed lots of sanding to fit.😠 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
