1967 Corvette



Monogram 1/25th scale 1967 Corvette. Nice kit. Not so nice execution. The red-line decals for the tires disintegrated. I see now that I forgot to foil the "Corvette" badge on the tail. And there's a nasty blemish in the paint by the "Corvette" badge, courtesy of sneezing violently while holding a paint brush full of thinner. I tried to rub it out, but no sale.

The missing door handles are missing on purpose.

Oh, by the way, the paint is Testors two-part lacquer, GM Deep Red out of a spray can but without the clear top coat, which I find too glossy, if that makes any sense.
