I was so glad this kit was reintroduced 

 

Ive wanted a replica of my old car for ages.

I actually have an original MPC builder I started years ago. But the tail light bars got damaged . So it went back in the box , Still there to this day 

 

So I started this build back right after the kit came out. For one reason or another. It got pushed back more and more .

 

I decided to get with it and finish it this week .

 

Built box stock  trying to replicate my old car .

I kind of like it without decals, , so for now I think I will leave them off

Beautiful looking paint color match and finish. Need to find body side stripes to match your old car.

Thanks all, I think Im going to go ahead and put the side stripes on it to match my old car 

 

 

I was originally goign to go a full detail build with chassis and drivetrain from the AMT Duster.

But ultimately decided to just keep it box stock call it done

 

Paint is just Tamiya light blue metallic. That took A LOT of clear and polishing to get any kind of gloss.

I ended up burning thru a spot on the hood is why I kept pushing it back. 

Finally, just said heck with it and finished the car this week . In my display case , I will live with it. AFTER I fix that exhaust leak , LoL
