finished this one up last night, Ernie Irvan Revellogram Oldsmobile Cutlass kit, Powerslide decals, Tamiya Pure White, Italian Red and Matt Black on the body. built completely box stock with the exception of the fuel filler, fuel overflow tube, exhaust, and side skirts.


















the kit went together without any issues, except that i had to sand the perimeter of the rear window to allow it to fit.


comments and criticism are expected and appreciated, as always

Absolutely perfect. Looks mean and low, perfect decals and paint.

I never do either, I think it makes them appear more like the vinyl decals of the 1:1 cars if you don't.

Looks great - Buddy had some nice looking cars late in his career. This one is no exception.

Really like your tire details - what did you use for those details?

All the decals are from Powerslide, from various sheets. The red Bassett lines are made with a red Sharpie and i use a Tamiya weathering kit to knock down some of the white brightness.
