2010 Shelby GT500
With the recent passing of Carroll Shelby, Scale Auto's August issue is somewhat timely, w/a couple of GT500 build stories. Chuck Kourouklis built the 1/12 version, I built the 1/25 version (2010 model).
My kit is built mostly OOB, I did alter the ride height a bit to get it to sit right; fairly easy job on this kit, by removing material front and rear. Paint is Tamiya TS23. Kit stripes worked very well. Fun kit, no problems w/assembly. Wheels were stripped and shot with Alclad Stainless Steel.

Re: 2010 Shelby GT500
nice color on a so nice subject. Suspect the OOB wheel setup is a little bit high, but the model is really cool anyway

Re: 2010 Shelby GT500
Man, I thought that was the real car, or atleast the 1/12 kit, but 1/25? Great work! That`s a really convincing build!

Re: 2010 Shelby GT500
That looks great Bob!
It looks so good, at first I thought it was the 1/12 version. How timely is it that we have the 50 years of the Cobra as a theme of the ACME show this year with Carroll Shelby's passing. That is going to be something special. Nice work! Andy |
