First non-warhammer kit since the BSC.

Cheap MPC kit I got on closeout. Built it with my kids, but they lost interest. After sitting a few months I finished it over the last week.

Color is Testor's Model Master Honduras Maroon.

Turns out the rear window can't be installed with the spoiler on. While it's mostly in place, the result was damage to both the window and the paint job. Brushed on some touch ups so it's mostly hidden.

I'm still having the same problem with car models I've always had: Mating the body to the chassis. There are no defined attachment points to glue, and they just never seem to fit together quite right.

I'm pretty happy with the overall result, and if I had thought about it sooner I would have scratch built struts and modeled the rear glass open.
