This is the Lindberg Chrysler Sebring model kit. It's a curbside snap-together kit. I wanted to build this like my old Sebring that I used to own. I also tried my hand at photo-etching for the first time and I learned a few things. The seat belts are from craft store ribbon and the buckles and latches are my first attempt at photo-etching anything. Overall, I'm pleased with how it came out, though I wish it had been a more detailed kit and I wish my p/e parts came out better.

Nicely done!

I have that kit as well, and like a few others here love to build cars that I see (saw) out on the streets, vs. supercars or classics I never got to see rolling around.

You did a great job on it, and I like the idea of ribbon for seatbelts!

You made that kit look like a lot more than a knocked-down promo (which it is) for sure!

Nice model! I still want one of those Chrysler convertibles! I keep my eye out for a nice low mile one at a reasonable price. Great summer cruiser.
