I am substituting some Ferrari front seats instead of those stupid skinny bucket seats that were in the kit... here's some pics...

I saved the good parts for future scratch building!

This one is a pretty basic kit, I have been building out of order (who follows directions)... did the paint early. Built the interior while that dried, then added the foil work a few days later to the body when it was good and dry... this was a rattle can paint job with a small can of Testors Extreme Lacquer, (color was 1842 Purple-licious). Interior was air brushed Tamiya flat white, then details picked out with a brush...

Two the same great color I’m using for my 2013 challenger. Looks mighty fine!

They look like Volaré Supercoupe wheels.
