Hasegawa 89 Isuzu Gemini

[Rbray47]

Finished this one last week. I like Japanese cars, especially odd ones. The kit had the "aero" ish bumpers and body cladding. I modified the the front and rear bumpers to look like the base model black plastic ones found on the Chevy/Geo Spectrums. Remember those? I had a couple. Horrible cars, but looking back now I wish I still had one. Paint is Tamiya Bright Red over Mr Hobby gray primer. I also scratchbuilt an axle back muffler delete.

Looks great!

Excellent!

Can you post a couple of closeups of the front bumper?

We had a 1986 Chevy Spectrum for a couple of years. As soon as I saw the Isuzu kit, I wondered about building it as the base model version so I could replicate the one we had.

I have a couple pics from 2 years ago during the build process. After the black paint, it's hard to get a decent shot.
