Deathgoblin Posted August 2, 2024 Share Posted August 2, 2024 Just finished this today. It was a fun kit overall and goes together pretty well. I HAD to swap out the engine, though. The rest of the car was so mean looking, but had a weenie looking engine. I dumped in a 409 with Hillborn (spelling?) injection. It really didn't take much work to make it fit. The color is Tamiya metallic orange. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

espo Posted August 2, 2024 Share Posted August 2, 2024 Beautiful paint color and finish. The engine upgrade looks like that is the way it should have been. Like the custom grill design. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XYHARRY Posted August 3, 2024 Share Posted August 3, 2024 Very cool custom and the 409 was a good decision as it looks right at home. The metallic orange really suits this build. Really well done Brian. Cheers, David. ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
