Bloody red!! Make sure you cover it good with primer to avoid as much bleeding as possible. Good start. Thanks for sharing.

Primed and ready to go. I used Pactra trim tape on the window instead of taking a chance of messing up with paint or paint pen...

Tamiya (TS-39) Mica Red looks a whole lot better than "Revell Red" lol...

Turbos and the piping to it/them? ANY close up pics of this? From my research it is actually a 1986 vintage Corvette Indy Concept Car. 1986 North American International Auto Show in Detroit, featuring such ambitious details as a 600hp twin-turbo 265-cu.in. 2.65-liter V-8 mounted behind the driver’s seat (there was no passenger seat), door-mounted displays for climate and audio controls, selectable all-wheel steering, a CRT-based instrument display and even a navigation screen (years before global positioning system satellites were approved for civilian use).

Steve,?
WOW! I'd had loved to been able to see close ups of the headers/exhaust manifolds and the turbos a bit better but thanks!
IMPRESSIVE set up to say the least! Thanks for the extras!
