...and, a bit further... MPC apparently couldn't decide if the car's an automatic or 4-speed, but it's a 4-speed now, haha. |

Thanks - just couldn't bring myself to cannibalizing a Duster or Dart kit, so the chassis isn't anything special, just painted up a bit.

Most times I don't do that, either, but I do have an old glue bomb Duster, along with a '69 Barracuda kit to use when I get around to building the resin '69 Barracuda convertible I have in the stash. |

Aha - I suppose if I was smarter, I'd buy some kits like that for their parts !

At some of the model shows that I’ve been to they have kits in bags that may be missing some parts for a cheaper price that can come in handy for parts. The only problem is that you have to usually dig through big boxes to find what you want or could use.

Got a bit further along with the thing... Need to touch up some of the chrome pen stuff, it was pulling the color. Hopefully it'll work better over the clear...

Beautiful color. Hard to tell if it’s metallic or not. Light blue interior is nice also.

It's B7 with B5 interior. Got the interior shades using white or black under the B5.

I'm callin' it done - oddly, no tailpipe tips in the kit, so Ebay to the rescue. Now to figure out which poor car is next, haha...
