happy grumpy Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 Not my area of expertise but I built this kit when I was young and totally botched it so I wanted to have at least one funny car in my collection , so here it is. I added plug wires and took some artistic license when I painted the wheels and the headers. The rest is pretty much what's in the box. I painted the base coat, applied the decals , clear coated and polished. Note that one wire got loose which I realized after taking the photos. No wonder the engine was running rough!🙂 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stavanzer Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 Sharp Build! You really captured the look. I'd say you did not botch it this time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claude Thibodeau Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 Salut Mario! Well, your second attempt at the kit sure turned good. Now, go reconnect that plug wire before showing up at the staging line! CT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
