Shelby Serie 1 **PIC**
Here is the last project of my Dad. It's a Shelby Serie 1 Revell.
It was paint with TS-50 Tamiya Silver paint (that i bought for my CLK-GTR i started today) This kit is kinda horrible (fit problem, lot of mold problem... it's revell !!) So let us know what you think !

Lookin good! I just finished doing that same model, and I have to say its the worst model I have ever done. First I couldn't figure out how the radiator was setup, then the damn hoses were too short, and then...blah blah. You get the point.

Looks to be a nice kit overall for a Revell

I've build lots of plains from Revell but not a single car.
Don't know about the quality of Revell cars but anyway your dad did a great job. |

Very nice, but would be better if the silver is lighter in colour...

Good work!!
I've got my Series One sitting on the shelf while I wonder what colour to paint it. I assembled the entire chassis and engine in a couple hours. Air brushing the chassis was a breeze as the ENTIRE thing was flat aluminum with the detail parts in sg black, blue and gold. For such a quick build, I didn't think this was that bad of a kit! The hoses needed some serious cleaning up and there was a serious fit problem in the rear of the chassis but as it will be completely hidden I didn't worry about it. The detail was a little soft in the interior and the body has some mold lines to sand but for 12.00U.S it's not bad! It ain't Tamiya, but it didn't cost 25.00 either!! |
