Amazing job you did on this! I like the stance and those wheels and tires are just perfect choice to this one. Engine detailing is stunning, and color looks very good to me. Paintjob is really nice too. How you did the hood scoop? I'm building one of these too, and it will be original, a friend to my '65 Malibu sedan, silver with red interior. Perfect combo. But yours is looking very good to me. B)

The paint is Tamiya spray paint "champagne" is the color. The hood is a resin cowl hood.

All emblems are photoetch. I paint all the edges on my photoetch flat black and sand off the tops. It gives it depth and when you photograph the model adds a natural shaddow around it.

Here is a sheet of photoetch and you can see the black and color on the emblem

Here is another 66 Chevelle and you can see the black shaddow on the Super Sport emblem
