Steve_L Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 These are pictures of my Chaparral Daytona Coupe, built from a vintage 1966 Monogram styrene kit. It is built pretty much box stock, with the addition of the Daytona race-time oil cooler add-on plus detailing with AMT fuel injection velocity stacks. I painted it with Rustoleum primer, Duplicolor Gloss White and Duplicolor Clear. The decals are, of course, the same age (48 years old) as the kit and they tested my patience. I wish to thank Henry Trent and Norm Newcity for their interest in this project and the ideas and tips they provided for it. It was a fun build and neat to complete something (for once) that makes turns on the race track! Enjoy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
