Bruno Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 Finished this one recently, it's the Revell kit with Polar Lights rear wheels and slicks, added a few wires and hoses here and there. Paint is automotive waterborne basecoat and 2 part urethane clear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

W-409 Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 You do great work with each build. This one is no exception. Very nice paint job and sharp detailing on the engine. I like the new wheels and tires, too, I think they look much better than those that came with the kit. Very nice work overall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jwrass Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 Bruno, Fantastic!!!!! I love what you did with all aspects of all the paint on the build! Interior tins, motor, chassis and the body wow!!! it still looks wet!! jwrass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nitro norman Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 Great looking model! Love the paint. It's good to see some one build this car more like the original. The rear wheels in the kit didn't even exist in 69-70. Most of the pictures you see of this car had wheels with gold centers like your model. You did your homework. good job.

Mooneyzs Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 This is one gorgeous model. I love the stance, did you modify it or was that how it was in the kit. It sits perfect. Again.. Nice job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charlie@mrtractorsales.com Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 Bruno, nice work how long did it take to complete ? I saw this car at Lions Drag Strip in 1971, you did it right. Charlie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruno Posted June 26, 2014 Author Share Posted June 26, 2014 Thanks everyone! No mods needed, that's the stance I ended up with straight from the kit. I don't know exactly how much time it took to build it, a few months maybe...? I always build multiple kits at the same time so it's hard to tell... plus I am a slowwww builder so...

gtx6970 Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 Very well done. One of my favorite cars of the period . I was pleasently suprised when this kit was released . as the chassis is this particular car only. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
