1968 Chevrolet Corvette L-88 Stingray Roadster Intro I really like the looks of the late '60s Corvettes (not to mention earlier ones), and was very excited to find this kit one day. I decided to build this one in complete stock trim, since the L-88 was a very special car, and I didn't really want to hack it all up with flashy decals and modifications. First Thoughts Kit Quality I really enjoyed building this car, and the kit quality had a lot to do with that. It's not overly detailed (what do you expect for ten bucks?), but it's got enough detail in the right places to really look great. I would not mind building another copy of this one and detailing it up. The Build Final Comments The Stats Manufacturer: Revell-Monogram Status: Display Paint/Finish: Finished with Testors red, and cleared with Future Floor Wax. Modifications: Some exterior detail painting. Construction Shots Sorry, no construction shots available. Finished Shots Front/side shot. Side shot. I took a bunch of these simply because I just love how they look from that angle. Side/top shot. Another side/top view. I particularly liked how the wheels turned out after a quick black wash. I liked these ones insead of the aftermaket ones. Rear view. Side/top shot. Side/front with the hood up. No modifications were done to the engine. It was 99% box-stock. Front shot. Top view. Yet another side shot. One more top/side shot. :)
