The poster is of the real deal; I was trying to show the color match but the light was off and so was the developing.

Ironically, this is the only picture I have that almost captures the Viper's color:

Here's the engine of the gray vette I built a while back, the valve covers were painted to match:

COOL!
What about the unbuilt C4?

That is my unbuilt C4 in the back ground, i found a C4 vert and a ZR1. I already had a ZR1 that i needed to build but i picked both up for around 10 bucks. I decided i'd build a C4 to be a "ZR1 powered" convertible. I know they never existed but i liked the idea of having a ZR1 in chrome yellow and a ZR1 convertible in this blue nail polish i have. It has been put on hold however while i build a Tamiya Supra for a friend for Christmas.

The Supra is being built for the same guy that 99Civichic is building the 93 Cobra (drag car) for, we will also throw together a 99 cobra built like one he used to own, and put together a little diarama to resemble his garage the way it used to be (he sold the 99 cobra). Should make for a pretty nice Christmas present and since he's into models i think he'll like it. We cant make it identical to his garage now because we cant build a 88 Saleen or an 04 Harley F250.

William

that christmas present seems to be a cool project :thumbsup:
But what#s the problem about the 88 saleen? I think afx-resin is making a transkit for the amt 88 stang

P.S. Sorry, but it is at least the wing:

A/FX N Scale Resin (http://www.afxnscaleresin.150m.com/accessories.htm)

That spoiler would be cool but if i were going to build him a saleen i'd want the entire thing to be saleen (whole body kit). I think the cobra will be more than enough. 99Civichic is still thinking about buying the lowrider mustang from Revell and cutting the bottom part of the sides off so it will have the GT ground effects on the drag car she's building for him.

William

is the 88 and 93 gt body kit the same? if so, and if the amt and revell kits are the same scale, you could pick up the amt 88 gt kit. its only 6 bucks at wal mart

Nice job on this very cool Vette..

Not at our walmart you cant pick up the 88GT, there is an old "four eye's" turbo kit there and the lowrider fox body. They are the same scale and i'm not sure she's going to do iti dont think she will, she still talks about it however.

William

lol. ok. it was just a thought. if money for you guys is tight like it is for me, every penny counts

Pennies are pretty tight for college kids! I'm going off a stash of model kits I got for Christmas last year (seems that's all I got, but it's all good) and using the WalMart gift cards my gramma sends for paint and glue :p

i understand the college part. i spend most my extra cash on my model supplies. needless to say my social life is lacking.

What part of Texas are you from? We're in College Station, AKA Aggieland...

sweet. texas modelers. i am in wolfe city. it is a little town about 60 miles NE of dallas. i currently attend paris junior college

What's your major? I'm a mech. engineer at A&M, technically a Junior but it's my third college so I'm a little behind. That whole money thing.

Yeah, it's a sweet Vette. I actually saw one in person last week. Not to get off topic or anything.
