Modelmikey Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 (edited) This is the Revell '99/'00 Civic. I wanted a bare/no show look. The olive paint is about the 4th paint job, and its just rattle can. I cut off the rocker covers, and scratch built some like they look like on 1:1 civic's. The Rims/tires are from a miata. The exhaust is 3/32" aluminum rod with a machined titanium muffler. I cut out the stock airbox and made a cold air intake from 1/8" aluminum rod. Edited December 11, 2013 by Modelmikey
o-man Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 Someone has been in VTEC a lot based on that rear bumper. Nice job on header paint.
Greg Cullinan Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 Looks like something you would see driving around. I like it.
HondaSan72 Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 Sweet build. Love all the small details under the hood. That air intake is sick!! Awesome job!!
Tom Geiger Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 Very nice! I like it right down to the exhaust soot on the back bumper. I also like your Integra build in the other thread. Great work on subjects we don't see a lot of on this board!
Modelmikey Posted December 12, 2013 Author Posted December 12, 2013 (edited) Thanks for the comments! One thing I always do on these Revell Honda's I didn't mention is I cut out the 'Shelf' the intake manifold mounts the engine to, and scratchbuild a motor mount where it is on 1:1 cars. Small fixable flaw in these kits (And the mounting screws, haha) Edited December 12, 2013 by Modelmikey
bbowser Posted December 12, 2013 Posted December 12, 2013 Great looking car, love the detailing under the hood. Not crazy about the red wheels. Nice work.
