leonard nimoy's 1964 riviera

[michelle]

 i made this using a vintage amt rebuilder 
with 3 different posed figures of nimoy i made using photos of him with his car i put into a once free to use image to 3d model generator
i painted the body rust-oleum 2x gloss black
i painted the interior rust-oleum 2x flat black primer
i brush painted the figures 

and there are snipits of 3 different songs sung by nimoy playing in the video the first 2 are covers and the 3rd a very very well known original

 The car's 5 year mission, to seek out new model makers in new civilisations

To boldly go where no model  car has gone before ?  

Nice themed build !

Michelle, you probably don't listen to much 'Beastie Boys', but they mention Spock in the song "Intergalactic", talking about a pinch in the neck from Mr. Spock!

Cool build.............

thank you 
the only beastie boys song i know is sabotage mainly cause it is the favorite song of kelvin verse capt kirk and it was played in 2 of the last 3 star trek films in   star trek 2009 while kid kirk was driving a antique c2 corvette convertible  and in  beyond to destroy a swarm of drone ships 
i know i want to make a replica of the grey 4 door car the beastie boys drive around in the the sabotage music video

Was it the Beastie Boys who hung VW badges around their necks and inadvertently caused a spate of VW badge thefts from cars all over the place?

thank you
it is well known in trek fandom cause of the photos of him posed next to it and him talking about a story involving it and his bicycle and shatner being a bully   featured in the  2016 documentary film  for the love of spock which was made by leonard's son adam nimoy about his father 
hot wheels also made a  san diego comic con exclusive replica of it with a small leonard nimoy figure for the 50th anniversary of star trek in 2016
