Album info

Overall I'm happy with the build although it was an old mold and pieces didn't quite fit together as they should. The hood and trunk, for example, aren't nice and tight. Instructions were a little unclear in places. There are no decals of any relevance so I had to use chrome and black pen to fill in the pre-molded details which ended up looking great so no biggie. Elements like windshield washers are cast into the mold instead of separate parts. Turned out looking fine but such corner-cutting surprised me. The model is fully brush painted with several coats of Pledge for the gloss and I couldn't be happier with how it turned out.
