TheCat Posted October 22, 2010 Posted October 22, 2010 I'm not a big fan of the Corvette, but I do admire the engineering and some of the designs. In all, I always admire great engineering and design of all vehicles (even if it's not a Mustang). The one style I did like allot was the 60's Sting Ray body style. Was not sure at the time of building the model on what color to paint it, then I decided on trying the metallic baby blue with a red stripe to match the red interior. I think it came out pretty nice. The custom California plate has my nephews name. He LOVES Corvettes.
my name is nobody Posted October 22, 2010 Posted October 22, 2010 very nice. my favorite mid-year 'vette. I really like the Revell kit. Your Corvette turned out pretty cool.
oldscool Posted October 22, 2010 Posted October 22, 2010 That's another great looking model and choice of colorB)

But I really like what you have done with the Sting Ray! really Awesome. I won't hold that against you. Chevy did make the 1967-68-69 Camaro's that I do like. Also the 1970 Chevelle's. I may be a Ford guy, but a true Automotive Lover would admire all kind of makes and models and I consider myself an Automotive Lover. It's a good thing to like one make or model better then the rest.

TheCat Posted October 22, 2010 Author Posted October 22, 2010 Sweet Vette, one small criticizm, you missed the mold lines just outside athe tail lights above and below the rear bumpers. Nice color combo! Yup, you're correct. When I painted this body (about 2 years ago), I put it back in the box and didn't go back to finish it until early this year. Back on those days I was just getting back into building models and didn't prep the models prior to painting them. The paint looked so nice that didn't want to re-do the paint. But now I've learned and know better. I'm still learning new things. That's what I LOVE about building models.

Okay so I do preffer a Chevy to a Ford, but that doesn't mean that there aren't any Fords I do like, Ford Galaxie happens to be on of my favorites and you have built that specific one for your dad that was My favorite year for that car, I also am a fan of Ferrari's, Dodge Mopar's, A few of the Mercury models, and a few Buick models, oh and I can't forget the Oldsmobile I like a few of those older models too. And much like you, I do enjoy good Engineering, and Style. I just wanted to point that out as well .
