bluemoose Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 I finally got this one done. It's pretty much box stock, except for the stripe delete, the Revell torq-thrusts, and the after market seat belts and plug wires. I also lowered the front end, but just a little. The colors are Tamiya gloss black spray and Krylon ivory satin. I used a red olds insignia from Keith Marks' '70 Olds decal sheet to spice up the nose a little, and then added Shabo (I think they're Shabo) Good Year decals to get some detail to the tires. A beautiful job by Revell in producing this kit. I especially like the chrome windshield frame. Nice to have a perfectly smooth surface there!

sjordan2 Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 (edited) That is just bloody awesome. Superb paint and detail work, and an answer to a pet peeve of mine: The plug wires are right on scale. Kudos. The dash looks great from what I can see; do you have any tighter shots? PS: Very professional photography.
