Uh.... don't ask what the hell I was thinking with this one   - She's converted from fwd to rwd , used a gremlin frame,I removed all the side molding, marker lights, threw out the horrible safety bumper crapola and gave it a custom front & rear, interior has green flaked seat inserts & steering wheel, 409 motor, wheel flares, rear spoiler, fogged paint, which actually looks 90% better than the crappy pics show  ( honestly ) - I still need to add the battery & details under the hood - this one fought me right to the end - I wish I could say I enjoyed this one, but it pissed me off in 10 directions & I'm just glad it's over and done - I will be hoping the next one goes together without all the bullshit that this one tossed at me         |

I've really got a soft spot for Sciroccos (probably between my ears) and there's nothing about that I don't like. Quality effort Rick!

How to turn a mundane kit into a killer street freak
I love it

Fantastic build Rick! Absolutely beautiful street freak, the fogged paint is impeccable.

Hey Rick,
Sometimes the fight is worth it. A couple of years ago I had to punch in the face of an annoying neighbor, he hasn't bothered me since.
I sorta get tired of hearing all the time about how much "fun" people have on a build. When lots of times it's about perseverance and desire to build something.
Thanks for keeping it real. (you always have)
It may not have been a fun build, but it sure is fun to look at.
Jim

Jim Thanks Jim I appreciate that - I think I'll be playing with a fun/less stressful model tonight; maybe a figure, a boat, or sci-fi kit - just to get back to basics & relax .... but I might go over & kick the next door neighbor in the nuts first - just for the hell of it .....if that doesn't make me feel better; I might have to try bitch slapping myself  |

- She's converted from fwd to rwd , used a gremlin frame,I removed all the side molding, marker lights, threw out the horrible safety bumper crapola and gave it a custom front & rear, interior has green flaked seat inserts & steering wheel, 409 motor, wheel flares, rear spoiler, fogged paint, which actually looks 90% better than the crappy pics show 
( honestly ) - I still need to add the battery & details under the hood - this one fought me right to the end - I wish I could say I enjoyed this one, but it pissed me off in 10 directions & I'm just glad it's over and done - I will be hoping the next one goes together without all the bullshit that this one tossed at me
