RIXprints Posted March 25 Posted March 25 This is a nice funny car but the decals needed some work. I used the USA flag set from the Corvette gasser. 6
RIXprints Posted March 26 Author Posted March 26 The 'White Diamonds' pearl color from Duplicolor sets off the decals nicely.
Daddyfink Posted March 26 Posted March 26 This and the other MPC Funnies of this series where supposed to be based on real cars. This was supposed to be the Tom 'The Mongoose" McEwen funny car. But the license cost got too high and MPC could not afford it. Thus generic paint for them. But I do like the USA theme!
Zen Posted March 26 Posted March 26 Is that the body that is in the kit? The front end looks totally different than the box art.

NitroMarty Posted March 27 Posted March 27 (edited) I actually really like that kit and your choice of paint and graphics makes for a really great looking model!!! I built one a few years back.... https://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/155119-1980-corvette-funny-car/ Edited March 27 by NitroMarty
