Scottnkat Posted September 30, 2013 Posted September 30, 2013 Here's how I defile a model of the AMT Beretta GTU kit. Well, it was the only one I found that had the right wheels and body treatments, so I just had to use this kit. Anyway, I cut the roof off and made it into a targa top. I added the turbo charger to the 2.8 liter engine (after all, it's gotta go quickly since it's a pace car). I created the hard boot cover for the body out of styrene. I also created full decals using Photoshop and Illustrator. Hope you enjoy this:
Kennyboy Posted September 30, 2013 Posted September 30, 2013 I like your mods on this Scott! You made it look like a box stock build!
Tom Geiger Posted September 30, 2013 Posted September 30, 2013 Looks great! I was at a show recently and found a Beretta kit marked $5. Upon opening it, the former owner had lopped the roof off, no doubt on it's way to a Pace Car conversion.
Daddyfink Posted September 30, 2013 Posted September 30, 2013 Cool! I did not know there was a Berretta pace car!!
jeffs396 Posted September 30, 2013 Posted September 30, 2013 (edited) Cool! I did not know there was a Berretta pace car!! The 'vert never made it into production, but made a nice concept! Our very own Art Anderson (AAM) even made a resin 'vert body back in the day Edited September 30, 2013 by jeffs396
am73grand Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 Very nice build!!! I love pace cars!.......you really did this one justice!
Scottnkat Posted October 1, 2013 Author Posted October 1, 2013 Thanks, everyone. It would have been nice to have a resin body to work with (would have saved me alot of work) Here's the engine
