Scorpion
Boxstock build from my MIB stash. Decals were bad, so I didn’t use any. Paint is Testor’s Nassau Blue Metallic lacquer with Wet Look Clear.
I was in a hurry to take pics while there’s daylight, forgot to take any pics with the opening rear of the body propped open- oh well.

Dave, this really looks great. I think it's one of the nicest ones I've ever seen built.

It looks pretty close to box art to me!!! Great job building one of the four versions of kits using the Piranha chassis, anda rare one to boot.

Oh Dang! That's what they look like. Great build, Dave. Way to put the glue to a rare piece indeed!
John, I know of the Studebaker and a dune buggy. What was the other one?

This is the first time I've seen a built kit. It looks as good as the box art. It has a mean rake and stance. Very slick Dave!

I remember that kit when it was originally issued. Had several. Wish I still had them. Great build Dave.

Man, turn on the way-back machine Mr. Peabody. I haven't seen one of those since I was a kid, and this is really well done considering how bad some of these old kits were made!! Smooth as glass man, nice work!

I missed this as a posting here, but saw it in the "Gallery" which is certainly where this beauty belongs. Boy Dave you've got some great and rare builds going on lately, very nice. Gerry G
