Looks great. I'm building the same kit, but it's not looking as good. I over looked fitting the front and rear body panels before paint, and they do not fit well. The hood is also a bad fit. Mine is Testor's Gloss Blue acrylic. BTW, mine does have the Trans Am decals.

Thank you! I learned that any kits with separate body panels need to be test fitted and glued as much as possible before paint.

Those wheels look superb! Where did you get those masks? 

Wheel masks came with the wheel kit!

Every part of this build looks killer. I think I have to train my stamina for painting things and mostly car bodies.?

I stagger multiple builds so that I don't rush the paint job! 


Here's the finished build:

What is and where did you get the wheel kit? Never mind I had to read better. Fireball! Sweet.
