Peter Lombardo Posted January 28, 2008 Posted January 28, 2008 Just completed this afternoon. I intermixed pictures of the actual car with the model. I hope you enjoy.
cruz Posted January 28, 2008 Posted January 28, 2008 Very impressive work there my friend, looks sspectacular!!!!
Jairus Posted January 28, 2008 Posted January 28, 2008 Very nice and not easy to accomplish! I think you would really improve the look with some vacuum formed head light covers...
bsoder Posted January 28, 2008 Posted January 28, 2008 Now there's where great referance pics. really help!..GREAT job
Raul_Perez Posted January 28, 2008 Posted January 28, 2008 Excellent, Peter!! Let me know when you get tired of it. I've already made room for it in my collection of Vettes!!
Peter Lombardo Posted January 28, 2008 Author Posted January 28, 2008 Very nice and not easy to accomplish! I think you would really improve the look with some vacuum formed head light covers... Thanks Jairus....I will see if I can get vacuum covers from Reliable Resin. I may be doing another one of these cutaway Vettes, the shop that did the real conversion has requested one. If I build it, I will most likely start with the Reliable Resin Vette, assuming I can get one.
ismaelg Posted January 29, 2008 Posted January 29, 2008 COOL beyond words! Great job (what an understatement)! That's one of my all time favorite display cars and you did justice to it! I like everything about it, but the gas tank is probably my favorite part. Thanks for the inspiration and sharing!
RJWood Posted January 29, 2008 Posted January 29, 2008 Trying to figure out which is a model and which is 1:1 Fantastic work! Ron
Peter Lombardo Posted January 29, 2008 Author Posted January 29, 2008 Thanks for all of the kind words, guys....I have to say, this was a fun build, something very different for me and full of learning experience. I thoroughly enjoyed the process.
RatRod Posted January 30, 2008 Posted January 30, 2008 I never would have have thought about doing such a project, let alone tackle it. That is just fantastic in every aspect !!
