  1. I've never seen one of these built! Congratulations to a good looking Corvette Jack!

    Regards

    Magnus

    • Thanks Magnus, I liked the kit but it wasn't an easy build. I have great intensions to build the other four versions…….someday.

  2. Nice Corvette Jack. Looks quite compact in the engine bay.

  3. Terrific build and photos, Jack...don't think I even knew AM made cars. 🙂

  4. Corvettes are always cool, very nice finish on this, Jack. Is it 1/24 scale?

  5. Nice model, the Accurate Miniature Corvettes are nice models but just take patience. I really like the blue color, is it automotive paint or a Tamiya blue. I posted one earlier this year (http://imodeler.com/2015/02/accurate-miniatures-corvette-grand-sport-revell-boxing/) but I like yours better.

    • Thanks Wayne…..It is Model Master Lacquer Nassau Metallic Blue which I was told matched the color used on this car.

      • Thanks for the note. I used the Tamiya metallic blue. It is really hard to tell from photographs what the exact color is. The recent restoration of the exact car looks different depending upon the photograph. Nice job.

  6. Great looking build, Jack. Some real eye candy.

  7. Beautiful ! My only complaint is that it's not sitting on MY shelf ! Good job, Jack.

  8. Jack,

    I add, beautifully done. Whatever was not easy about building this kit, yu have overcome. It's great.
