shoopdog Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 (edited) This is the older release of this kit, 98-99 maybe, directions say copyright 1998 if that means anything. Waited and waited for Revell's reissue but gave up when Hobbico filed for bankruptcy. Just bought the new release last week and used the black Daytona stripe from the new kit as the old kit decals fell apart when trying to use them. Also used the new kit red lines as the old kit tires looked like a drunken sailor printed the old ones. (LoL- that's what Mr. Obsessive had stated in an earlier post). Will be building the new kit as the stock car. Painted Tamiya Candy Lime Green, missed the factory color I was going for, but I like the way it turned out anyway. First pic is color I was going for..... Edited January 6, 2019 by shoopdog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brutalform Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Very nice Mopar. That color is beautiful, and laid on nice. I love those redline tires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sport Suburban Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 That is beautiful. I built the original issue and the decals were brittle even then. I have one more of the Pro Modeler version and I'm sure the decals are toast now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrObsessive Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Super slick and clean! One of Revell's BEST kits! Much better than the MPC one that's been around forever. I actually like your shade of green better than the 1:1! Suits the car better IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
