Yeah, I know I still have the 1965 Turbo 'Vert Corvair to finish, but Hobby Lobby had a 40% off any single item coupon for this week and I just had to get it. Now I've got another kit screaming for my attention. So, here's the question: Has anyone build one of these kits, and is there anything I need to be aware of before I assemble it?
I have a few plans for this build as well:
- Carbon Fiber decal for the hood, possibly with a clear yellow overcoat.
- Detailed engine compartment, I've got some good reference pics, but could always use some more.
- Painted yellow with Model Master's Custom Lacquer system (hopefully it comes out close to Millenium Yellow)
- Wheels stripped of chrome, painted semigloss black to simulate black powdercoating. I'm also contemplating creating a polished lip on the wheels as well.
- Flocked and detailed interior, possibly some PE parts. Oh yeah, adding the clutch pedal that's magically missing, as well...

I noticed there's a little window in the front windshield for the VIN code

. I'm probably going to hit up a few Chevy dealerships to try to get some detailed reference photos of a Z06.
Thoughts?
