Started this early this morning! As you can see i made really good progress.Engine,chassis and interior are finished.Body and hood have been painted Tamiya light metallic blue.Interior is a combination of gray,aluminum,black seats and dash painted the body color.Still need to paint a few engine and dash details.Body is test fit and looks like i have to sand down the bottom of the windshield so the body mates up with the dash as there is a gap between the two.
BTW...The kit came with plastic tires and i swapped the rear tires out for the slicks that came with the pro street Chevelle and no chassis mods were needed.The front tires also came from the parts box.

I had one of these kits years ago, ended up turfing it as nothing lined up, was a real POS. But yours is looking sweet.
