needs a drop. just kidding, but the center piece between the tails is supposed to be black unless you got a pewter one on your car? also would look better with a more detailed paint.

Forgot to do the center piece, just fixed it. I know this isnt a work of art but I cant walk let alone drive right now. I cant even work on it so I have to do something besides XBOX.

Where did you get the model? Who makes it? I have looked for them but never had any luck.

Cool man, I got the same model and I painted it Pewter.

I'll try to get a picture up. Took me weeks to put it together. Primed, painted and cleared the whole thing, inlcuding all engine parts. The rear bumper and hood are a little off, could never get it to line up perfect.

Damn, I need to get mine put together. I just gotta find some good NBM model paint or get the body all smoothed out & have it shot with real NBM. I expect mine to take about a month to build. When I do model I get a little carried away with details.

The Biggest PITA to paint. It was tough getting the front/rear bumpers close.














and my 68

You don't even want me to start posting pics of model cars. I have way too many of them. All metal ones, and none with those crazy huge rims.

785T/A I think a coat of clear over your T/A(model) will help it out a lot.

I'll post a few of mine to play along

C5.R:


Bel Air 409:



Jaguar XKSS:



And...group shot(can't see the ones hanging on the wall, and some are cut off):

Yeah but the TA we assembled and painted with our bare hands.

Nice collection though. Looks like you need a display wall or something.
