1978 Silver Anniversary Corvette Pace Car

Original Monogram kit from ’78, built out-of-the-box. Tamiya lacquers for the exterior colors. Vinyl for the red pinstripes on the body and wheels, I had to make new decals for the doors, and license plates. The hood spear is a painted decal I made to match the silver paint on the lower section. Took about three and a half weeks. There are some inaccuracies, and a few poor fitting parts, but all in all, a fun build.

Here is a link if you want to see the WIP:

Looks great! The black paint work looks amazing. I've been having a lot of trouble with the black paint on my current WIP - so well done!

Beautiful car and very clean job!!!
Scale Master this is a incredible well done job.
Painting in black is hard and old monogram kits could be a headache.
Congratulations
Miguel
