Title: 57 Vette B Production Racing WIP
Post by: slim on January 26, 2018, 04:13:57 PM
I have diverted again, now I am building wine cheese racing cars. At least they still have a number on the side, so far! This one needs a motor, exhaust, shocks, etc.

OK, if the truth be said, I have a 427 Cobra and two Ford GT40's on the back burner, all by Revell.
