AMT/ERTL Geoff Bodine Motorcraft Thunderbird

Finished up this kit that I had picked up at a local antique mall in town for 4.50. Not sure how old this one is but every decal seemed to be on the verge of ripping to shreds, seemed extra thin. Unfortunately I couldn’t get the rear stance any lower. Paint is Rust-Oleum Apple Red that dried in about a months time, then wet sanded and polished. The Terry Labonte car is an older AMT kit I built years ago.

Real sharp. I like how you did the black around the windshield.

That's a great looking replica. That particular car was one of my favorite Bud Moore owned race car's. I like the simplicity of the paint job on most of Bud's cars. Thank you for posting it.

Thank you Steve and you’re quite welcome.

Nice fish by the way, bass fishing is my other hobby.

Super nice build Keith. Very clean paint work and the decals turned out fine so you must have powered through the thinness of them. It's always nice to find an old kit at bargain price where you least expect to find it.

Both builds are super clean, and very well done!
