I don't often work on Corvette replicas, but I thought perhaps some of you might enjoy this. I know it's TINY... but it's still a Vette.
My 1/64 La Carrera Panamerican 1954 Mexican Road Race display/cars/diorama continues.
To replicate the somewhat famous Von Esser's Speed Equipment '53 Vette, I started with a Hot Wheels Elite '53, then drilled out the chassis, added screws (for easy access later ), changed the wheels to "Dayton wires," then added period correct Road Race graphics.
Next comes two driver figures & a bit of weathering.

Thank you Geoff, but I'm an N-scaler (model RR ) from way back. 1/64 cars vs. to N-scale cars is like working on a potato compared to a pea. 😏 Again, thanks!
