My orange car (model) even has CME and a 12 bolt under it. The TTII wheels were from another kit (believe it was the Vette AGIN that is an older kit now. As for having a model stand next to my car, I have several pics with her posing on my car, might put some up in a bit

I used to build these as a kid, they take a pretty good amount of hours to do them right. Kinda curious as to what she charges to build one, ballpark?

ZR1's are from the AMT ZR1 corvette model kit. Yea she has built a few that are VERY detailed. I'll see if i can find the one she built for a friend. 90 GT with a custom turbo kit, full cage, minitubbed and a chute!

Hood in that pic is popped. She forgot to shut it all the way and we havn't pulled it out of our model case to snap more pics.

I'm definitely not the first to have a HO car looking like this (9ball) but why mess with success? It works and I love it so far!
