The German Posted August 13, 2024 Posted August 13, 2024 Hello again! I almost forgot! There is still a finished model to see! It is the '55 Chevy Pace Car of the Indy 500. Unfortunately I made a mistake. I followed the decal plan from Revell but the flags on the doors are the wrong way round! The decal on the driver's door belongs on the other side, the decal on the right side belongs on the left! That's what happens when you blindly follow the manufacturer's instructions! Sorry about that! Well, let's look at the pictures. Comments are welcome... As always, greetings from the other side of the ocean... Uwe. 8
Hard_2_Handle_454 Posted August 13, 2024 Posted August 13, 2024 Looks great. Could be a twin to the one I did a few years back 1

STU111 Posted August 14, 2024 Posted August 14, 2024 G’day Uwe. Your 55 Chevy is so neatly presented, I wouldn’t have noticed the decal mix up. Cheers, Stu.?? 1

ncbuckeye67 Posted August 15, 2024 Posted August 15, 2024 That is gorgeous! I have that kit, and now I want to tear into it thanks to you. 1
TooOld Posted August 16, 2024 Posted August 16, 2024 Sharp looking pace car ! This may be the first time I've seen this built using the kit decals , I like it ! Would never know the flags were reversed if you didn't tell us .
The German Posted August 17, 2024 Author Posted August 17, 2024 Maybe Revell USA has different construction plans? The decal plan from Revell Germany definitely has this error! See picture:
