After I recently built the re-issued Gremlin, I remembered how much fun the '70's kits are.

This is the '76 Caprice, painted Testor's lacquer Fathom Green. The top and interior are painted with Testor's lacquer white vinyl top base.

Please feel free to comment and add photos of your '70's full size cars.

Thanks,

Eric

Good thing I opened the thumbnails in panel 1. At a glance I thought you were showing samples of the 1:1 that inspired the model photos. They're ALL models. Too bad the paint's not rubbed out, but your small details are impeccable. I might have to use these as references.

Nice one indeed! I have two of these, newest releases with a trailer. Both of my kits have a warping issue on top of drivers side front fender where the fender meets a pillar.

Small issue but difficult to fix.

It looks like body has been still too warm when bagged in its plastic bag with interior and chassis.

Anyway, nice kit and your model looks great!
