This Revell kit is a great kit. I painted it MCW Willow Green which is close to the 1968 colors although it is a 1965 Chevy color. The interior is painted Krylon Satin Italian Olive and black. I added plug wires, heater hoses, and a fuel line with filter to the engine. The vinyl top was added with 2" masking tape and painted with flat black. Some photos I took with it sitting on a box so you can see the stull at the bottom a little better. I've also posted a companion 68 Chevelle that I built a couple of years ago. Two different colors and a bit different style but very similar builds. The previous build took a 2nd place in Factory Stock. No problems with either build and they were fun to build! Thanks for looking and have a Happy Easter! ! 😎

The texture on the vinyl roof and redline tires are a killer combo with the color you painted this.

And a wonderful result on the Chevelle. Enjoyed following along with it and that’s a beautiful pair.

This turned out masterfully JR. From the paint job, to the BMF to the detailing. This build makes me want to go out and buy one of these kits right now! MAN that looks good.
