1982 Chevrolet Corvette (Arii)
Hello all, hope you are well. My name is Dave and this is Arii's version of the 1982 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. Even though the box says it's a Chevrolot.
Getting all artsy fartsy with the pictures.
A horrendous list of shortcomings from this kit including rotten glass and a dashboard from the 60's but I do love the wheels.
The stash dwindles.

Excellent build! The two tone paint is beautiful and the detailing is magnificent.

Gorgeous Dave.
Hand scribed heated rear window too!
Would like a tute on how you spaced out the lines in order to scribe them.

Beautiful work there, Dave. A great two-toned paint job.
The ARII kits get a bit quirky at times. I don't think I've ever seen a Corvette say 'Chevrolet' on the side script.

Thanks all. The Chevrolet was me dipping into my spares box as there was no decals in the kit and I wanted something put there, also you'll notice Chevrolet on the back window. That was there to cover a nasty flaw in the glass. Basically the whole kit is not very accurate so I just went my own way in places.

Dublin boy, Nothing to specific. Just made a paper template and used that to measure the centre point. A sharp blade, a ruler and a snipers intake of breath and half let out before the cut.
