Very nicely detailed. Well done! I like the basic Solido, also.
Very good detailed. This shows, that a cheaper and older model can be accurate
Did you wax or repainted this model?
Gotta get me one of those!!
I think this model may have been "improved".
Wasn't the Solido 1950 Chevrolet originally criticised for the major error of having a one-piece winsdscreen/windshield without a central divider?. Looks to me like someone has added that detail here before doing the foil work.
Having said that, some online images do appear to show the Solido with a slight raised rib embossed into the front glass (but it wasn't chromed or painted silver and wasn't really bold enough to be convincing). So maybe that was a revised version they did at some stage?

All I ask is.........did he put a V8 in it?
And a few variations and modifications I worked up
Some are Solido based one Record based.
