1981 Chevy Malibu Resin kit

[SVTInterceptor]

I recently completed my first all resin body project. I found the body, bumpers and grille on EBay from A&J Resin of a 1981 Chevy Malibu. 
This project was special because I had been wanting to recreate my uncles car in scale since the mid 1990’s. 
 

Kits used:

AMT 86 El Camino 

AMT 69 Olds 442

Revell 83 Olds Hurst 

1981 Chevy El Camino (promo)

Aftermarket:

Scenes Unlimited wheels 

Morgan Automotive Detail distributor 

Lex’s Resin Cowl hood 

Model Car Parts dash gauges

Overal the project took a little over a year to complete…but doggone sure worth it.

Looks like a lot of work to get that body right, but the end result was totally worth it!

Looks excellent!

I enjoy replicas of family cars and like that you showed us a picture of your uncle in the same car you built. Cool build!
