Very beautiful! Super clean. The paint and the decal work is amazing. I really like the detail in the engine compartment, and the PE all over it is particularly well done. Great work!

... nothing more to say, its great

I totally agree... nice'n'clean!!!

Very good work in an originally simple kit.

Very nice build. Simple and clean! Looking forward to more work from you.

Fantastic,

but its the GT1 category, not GTS, GTS ended in 04 and GT1 started in 05, don't be fooled by Revell they make many mistakes

I thought my monitor was burning because this beautiful Corvette was too hot to see!!!!!!!!! :)

Very nice work Dave. Nice clean build. I like the PE additions you put on.

Spike is right about the GTS decals, I'm unsure why they were on the decal sheet to begin with. Luckily Revell put the GT1 decals on the sheet too.

While your fixing the drivers name decals peel those GTS decals off too.:tongue:

The presentation car had GTS decals though, so they could be left on.

So if I throw the GT1 decals on and change both sides to read Fellows and O'COnnell I am correct? Your right about Revell!!!! I used the ALMS placement sheet which looks like it was totally wrong!!!! :banghead:

Thanks for correcting!

Veery nice work!
I just bought that kit too.

Darn...... :banghead: Wait till you build a nascar!! LOL!!!

built plenty of those my friend, and they aren't fun :D

Great lookin build

Thats a beauty!! The gap in the hood and the bumper is the only thing i see, but thats revells fault so i won't blame ya. Other than that it looks like the real thing, flawless like usual.

that's a great build
:biggrin:
only question i have is the chevrolet decal on the rear windshield
i know decals have those excess clear film...
but is it that prominent on real cars? :confused:
if it is not supposed to be that prominent...
is there a way to "hide" the excess film and the thickness of the film?
heard that layers of clear with sanding helps???

Great looking work Dave, nice to see you make a mistake....i am sure you will fix it without any problems at all.

:eek7: Layers of clear on the glass? Never heard of it..............

Yes Shayne, the roof decal is fixed but I left it as a GTS car instead of GT1 like the presentation car.....

Thanks again everyone.. My next one will be correct the first time!!
