Post your model cars pix!


I just snagged a model of a 1982 Z28-E from the local hobby shop. It's made by either a Chinese or Japanese company and I know nothing about it because, well, I dont no either language. I was wondering if anyone has or has built this model. Do you think I should build it or let it in the unopened box?

If you can, buy another one - keep one closed, build the other. That's what I do.
p.s.Red - My rims turned out great, but I did do some light sanding first.

I really wish the hobby shop had two models, or else i would pick up both. I don't think I am going to build it anyways, I'd rather hold onto it. Me and my dad collect third gen promos. We almost have every color in every year w could find.

I also picked up an 85 z28 from walmart a while ago. Its a Revell-Monogram 1:24th scale. Anyone build this? I am probably going to build this one because it seems like walmart usually carries them.

Kap- Glad your wheels turned out good, you gotta post or email me some pics sometime.
