1998 Roadster

The model

Robert Wheeler good looking 1998 Roadster is definitely an eye catcher with it clean lines and leather interior...

Revell-Monogram kit #85-1904 in 1/25th scale

Here are some of Rob's comments on the model:

Paint:

• Black (Model Master Black), Firethorn Red interior (custom mixed).

Work Done: 

• This was the snaptite kit.

• A number of parts were taken from the glue kit: brakes, mirror, lights & etc.

• Some detailing in the interior.

• Wheels dechromed.

Problems:

• Decals on dash & waterfall did not want to stick.

Comments:

• I chose to build the snap kit so that I could finish one quickly, but in the end had to take so many parts from the glue kit to correct mistakes and omissions that it might have been better to have used the detailed kit.
