`68 Corvette L-88 427

This is a build up of Revell`s `68 427 Corvette L88. Like most of Revell`s Corvette kits, it is a great one. Some of you may recognize this from a certain other site, and yes, this is "that one". I ended up selling this to a doctor who has a real one with the exact same color scheme. I was inspired by the L88 being restored on the tv show "Dream Car Garage". Let me know what you think.

Amazing shine. Looks great. Did the kit come with the removable top like that?

Yeah. The kit comes with that top, plus I think it came with the hardtop. I used Tamiya laquer sprayed in light mist coats on it, and it gives a real convincing texture.
