http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l284/mmmdrc/my%20models/DSC01658.jpg This one was built about 2 years ago, I have always loved the body lines on this car. The decals in the box were very old and dry so I had a good friend make up a set in his computer.........
http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l284/mmmdrc/my%20models/DSC01654.jpg Tires and rims came from the AMT Cougar that was re-issued recently, the paint is Testors Lacquers Hugger Orange w/o clear, wet-sanded and polished..........
http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l284/mmmdrc/my%20models/DSC01655.jpg This kit was in a terrible shape when they gave it to me, the rear bumper was Alcladed and I had to straighten out the warp on the body.........:rolleyes:

Nice restoration :sunglasse Did I see this one on the table at the NNL East in '06? If this is the one I remember I looked at it up close as I really dig this car and model.
I've got a restorable '70 Cyclone and some Keith Marks decals...someday I'll get to it. I'm going to make mine w/open/non-hidden headlights for a slight change.

This is a great build. Awesome color choice and well done on the new graphics. This is a fave of mine for sure. Great job. Love that you didn't go Low Profile tires on it. Nice to see a 70's muscle car look 70's.
