Had to go to work before I could post it.
A few tricky things with it. I'm fine with it, but could be happier.
Cobra Colors Atomic Orange. Black and gray flocked interior. Basic box stock build.
At least when I do my regular Corvette I'll know what to look for.

Couple of more pictures of the car can be seen at MY FOTKI (http://public.fotki.com/73superduty/my_completed_model/revell-corvette-z06/)
OUTDOOR Pics
Took more pictures with my better camera.
After seeing the pictures blown up on my computer I have a few more touch-ups that will make me happier. But it is done. On to the next one.

This was a Cobra Colors Atomic Orange. Not available anymore through Cobra Coors. However you can find the color done by scalefinishes from ebay. Here is a link to his store:
Scalefinishes on ebay (http://stores.ebay.com/Scalefinishes_W0QQssPageNameZstrkQ3amefsxQ3amesstQ QtZkm)
He should have some in stock and/or can mix it for you. It's great paint. I bought some Macadamia Metallic from him and it sprays beautifully.

Thanks. Still have a few nits to finish on it to make me a little happier.
Not too much for WIPS. I can tell you the front glass can be a bit of a pain to put in. I had to shave some of the radiator bottom off and also shave down the very front winglets on the chassis so I could get the front wheels to line up better in the wheel well. Otherwise it's pretty straightforward and fun to build.
Thanks guys!
