- Built this scale model Vette as a kid in 1987. loved it! ... haven't really done model cars since. decided to try it again!
built with same set up options as I did back then.
1/25 scale model
scale model supercharger
scale model race slices
scale craiger style mag wheels
side exhaust
Those look fantastic. Very nice. As the builder, you always know where the warts are.
That corvette was my re-introduction to model building as well. Yours is much better! The professionalism out there now compared to my old glue-sniffing days is extraordinary.
Covid was a big help to expand my model collection, now I have been working on all my favorite cars and planes that I only saw in museums or someone else’s driveway.
Awesome! ...wish I could afford a couple real versions of these! Lol
Great job I’m 67 years old and just started my first build since 50 years. A revell 71 Cuda 426 and parts need tweaking, but that’s half the fun.
Nice! Have fun with it!
Great job,car stance is perfect for that build. Back after 40 years on and off aswell. Still learning everyday,keep at it
Thanks!
Those are awesome builds and you did a great job! That's coming from a pro car builder of models to full size show cars.
Nice! Thank you!
You made a tough kit look good! Glad you rejoined the hobby, as you can enjoy it with the skills you acquired over the years
Thanks!
Great job buddy, just got back into modeling myself. Same thing been a long time . Becomes overwhelming at times Especially seeing what other guys are putting out. The model world has changed so much in 50 years. Like I said before a great job feels good to get back into makes me feel like a kid again
Thanks! Hope you have fun with it too!
Look pretty damn good to me .. nice job bro. Looking forward to seeing your future builds 😊👍🏻
Thanks!
Excellent builds.
Thanks!
Too great looking builds.🤓👍
Thanks!
Great job on both builds
I appreciate your honesty all though you don't give yourself enough credit. You do good work. At 63 I am retired and too have found myself back into plastic model drilling after 40 some years. I have a lot to.learn as my first build being the USS Kitty Hawk aircraft carrier looks a bit amateurish. I bought the AMT '63 split window myself and am getting ready to tackle it over the next couple of weeks. Again great job.
Thank you very much! And good luck with your 63, have fun with it!
Nice build man! The '63 is my favorite year of the Vette! And airbrushing is something that takes time to manipulate but you'll get there!
Thanks! Always been my favorite too. Ever since I bought this model kit as a kid!
Looks great, nice job!
Good Work! Compadre!! Keep it up!!
I hear ya brother, always something to do .
good looking build
Thanks!
Finally someone made decent looking AMT Vette. Been browsing videos for some time now, and most of them are really medium. This one is great. Especially considering you had 35 year lay off lol.
Hey thanks man! This was my dream car when I was 13. Still love it!
@@LastBastian You got it! I'm Vette fan my whole life, so looking forward for more builds!
@@loganit0 Awesome! ...wish the real C2's were more affordable! Haha!
Looks great! I do believe that the valve covers are on upside down. Four bots on the bottom, three on top.
Ahh. Instructions were not very clear. And I'm not very experienced.
..if only someone would lend me their supercharged 63 Vette, I could learn a bit more. 😁
Good looking build!! 🤙🏼
Thanks!
Congratulations. Very nice build
Bro, you did an outstanding job on this model.. Remember, if you like it, it doesn't matter what someone else thinks.. I always say that I try to learn something every time I build a kit..I think you did an outstanding job.
Impressive!!
Nice job man I’m in the same process of learning and it’s fun though 🤣
Sure is! Good luck on yours!
I hear ya brother
Great to see you back at the bench… build on 👍
Thanks!

This kit is very basic with not a lot of great detailing. With that and the fact that you haven’t built a model in 35 years you did an incredible job. Keep at it and your models in the future will be amazing.
Thank you!
Trying to finish up the same model kit an it just won't let me lol!! It's a nightmare to get everything to line up. Can't let it beat me lol!! You did a great job on it.
Thanks! Yeah this thing fought me every step of the way! Good luck!
🤘
Thanks buddy you also. You still building ?
I have too many hobbies, lol! Always working on *something.*
I have a couple hot rod car models that I want to do, but haven't found the time yet.
What engine option did you use
