I had to finish something to get myself out of a slump so I spontaneously decided this once discarded Monogram 1992 Corvette convertible was what I needed. I started it when I bought it new but screwed up the paint job. Since there was nothing available to safely strip paint at the time, I shelved it and bought a second one to start over. Fast forward to 2025 and thanks to a nice long soak in the magic purple pool I was able to salvage it. This is actually the third paint job as the second one done in Tamiya metallic blue uncharacteristically didn’t cover evenly. Three coats of Createx pearl blue and three more Createx clear coat followed by a little Meguiars plastix got the job done. The build is 100% OTB. Now all I have to do is decide what to do with the extra unstarted kit I have. The two accompanying C4’s are builds I started back in the 90’s and finished last year. They’re not my best work but I’ll post more pics of them if anyone is interested. Thanks for stopping by.

Beautiful paint finish and the body color and interior color look great together. Like the paint detailing on the chassis and engine.
