Railfreak78 Posted July 1, 2010 Posted July 1, 2010 Hi everyone This here is a Monogram release of Midnight Z. I'm doing this basically stock though and based on a color combo that was offered on this car. I may add a couple tweaks to it as I go but this is the start. I also already made myself more work. I started this during a weekend get away and dropped it packing up to come home. Now the nose needs some work already. Oh well... enjoy!
MyBradKeselowski Posted July 1, 2010 Posted July 1, 2010 Looks great after the accident,only problem is the Z28 on the drivers door should be on the passenger door... Great color match to the 1:1
Railfreak78 Posted July 1, 2010 Author Posted July 1, 2010 Thanks for pointing that out! I am sure I can save it with some water. Thank goodness I didn't clear it due to the chips in the front. Everything happens for a reason I guess

insaneMB Posted July 1, 2010 Posted July 1, 2010 Gateway Classic Cars are about 2 miles down the road from my house...
Farmboy Posted July 1, 2010 Posted July 1, 2010 Nice to see how it goes together. The Revell '79 (same kit?) is my next project. I`m building a replica of my sister in law`s z car as a Christmas gift. Her 1:1 is in my garage. She lives in another part of the country so I'm hoping to pull off a 'giveable' build/replica. It`s the dark blue one with the turbine style wheels. The revell kit has the blue decals but not the wheels however I did find a 'close enough' set in a chevy impala lowrider kit. They`re gold plated, but I`ll strip them and spray them the graphite/steel color. Keep posting your progress, I'll do the same when I start mine. Maybe we can compare notes.

Hey Mike I will look forward to your build as well. I am not sure if the Revell kit is the same or not. I know this is the same chassis as the old "WarBird" in this following picture. The Bird has the same stock or drag option. Maybe someone else can enlighten us. I can't picture the wheels off hand but if they are what I am thinking they are,.. I might have them on a messed up promo. Let me do some research Also thanks for the comliments guys. Time to go work on it some more
