Vintage MPC 68 Corvette

[Hemifever]

Finished this build a few weeks ago of a friend's 1:1 Corvette. It's built box stock with some detail painting, gauges and a few photo etched items added. Paint is MCW Corvette bronze and the interior is decanted CA dark orange interior dye, shot from my air brush. I remember this kit as a kid, with that scary working front suspension, but 57 years later it went together with no problems. Comments welcomed.

Sweet build and great photos!

I've been a fan of MPC C3 kits since I first built one as a young teen, and I'd say yours turned out nicely, especially that MCW paint.  

If you get a chance, I'd love to see engine and chassis pics too.

Beautiful build. Impressive how this old tooled body has retained crisp lines and details.

Looks spectacular!  I really like the colors you selected.

Damn does that look good! 

Those old tools have been flogged so hard for so long, we forget how great they looked new.

Beautiful work! Everything is so crisp, it could pass for a 1:1

 Thanks all for your kind comments.  On my bucket list was to build a old kit from my younger  building days, a Mopar maybe, but it turned out to be a Corvette.  Very impressed with the tooling of this kit, especially being mid-century.  Great suspension detail and everything fit together very well.  Maybe I'll get around to building that MPC 66 Charger.
