I built this in 2006. It's the car in my avatar (sort of). It's painted with Testors Sublime Green. It has MCG PE and BFM, seat belts and the engine is wired and loomed in the correct firing order. Oh yeah, it is a crummy kit.

Nice and tidy. I bet it was a pain in the arse to get the hood pins lined up right. What was crummy about the kit? I hear Testors paint isn't easy to work with and a lot of modelers don't like it. What would you say?
I hate working wit PE bits. Way too fiddly. I'm watching someone build a Muira at the moment which includes all the little 'eyelashes' on the front lights and I just wouldn't have the patience for it.

Crummy: It lacks detail and the hood's a lousy fit. The hood pins are tricky. I think I put them into the radiator bulkhead first and then I was able to mark the underside of the hood with them so I could drill the hood out. Revell has a newer kit out of this car (or something close to it) and they have much better quality kits then they did back then.
