Hi Andreas,
Nice job! How did you build this model? Just from pictures or maybe with a
scale model as a reference?
Now I saw this Chevy I really would like to build a similar model. One of my
favorates is a '65 Corvette Stingray. I think black would be a nice color.
For me it's unussual to build a car but who bothers anyway ...
