....and finished another - 97 Vette (pics)

Revell Snap-fit 97 Corvette painted with Duplicolor paints and Hoppin Hydro rims. Need to lower the back a bit more and find some brakes for it.

I have a couple questions about this model. First how did you do that paint job, was it masked off or what? Second how was the snap tite model to build?

Only the back? You need to slam it all round . Sweet paint, nice rims, are they 20s?

Maybe just a tad lower, great work for a snaptite kit.
