This is a kit I finished a little over a month ago, but since I have yet to post the build I will share it here.

I started with the Revell Muscle reissue of this kit. It's labeled incorrectly, but the kit is really good.

Some engine work.

Stripped some chrome.

A little bit of trimming, sanding and mock-up.

Funny enough, I'll be posting a second kit here in a second with a top-up option. lol
