While waiting for some stuff for the van I decided to get started on another one of my Cars I Used to Own series.
Mine was actually a '66 but since the '69 kit was readily available and cheap I evoked the "Meh close enough" rule.
It is the latest release from Round 2 and I was not really impressed. There was so much flash and massive mold lines it was just a vagally Corvair shaped chunk of styrene. I was so shocked that I didn't even think to take pictures but the mold seems on the rear of the body were so big it looked like a '59 caddy! It was disappointing but of course not insurmountable.
As always I started on the engine. It required a great deal of cleanup as well but went together nicely. This will be another rather worn and well used build as mine was 14 years old and all original when I got it.
