Olds 88 Modified, the last build completed for quite a while

A project started with some leftovers picked up at a local show or club night (I fergit) definitely more of a pavement car. Sat for several years until the pandemic and shut in orders. Combination of boredom and box "grape juice" and I was swinging the xacto again at the bench.

Cut and plated the less-than-realistic back seat out, fudged a few other bits, tuned up the roll cage with some extra stix and raised slightly for a better fit, did some detailing here and there on the dash, wheel, seat, etc. Just glued the hood shut and stabbed in a Pontiac Bonneville resin engine blank from the short lived '65 Bonneville convert resin we did many moons ago. Paint is Tamiya Racing White and Bright Red, tires are the MPC-sourced sportsman type, an innovation that came from either this board or Randy's.
