Modelers,

Built this back the kit first came out. Over time the paint deteriated badly.  When the decals came out to do several of Bobby's coke machine, I redid this one.

Terrible restoration Mike! Send it to me and I'll see what I can do with it!

Ok.....just kidding...VERY NICE restoration! Very clean and well done. I'd LOVE to have one of those 73 Chevelles, but they are like the proverbial 'hen's teeth'.

Thanks for posting pics.

"Glove save, and a beauty" on this restoration Mike. The old builds are still a favorite of mine.
