I like the top half of that motor it looks pretty agressive. I think you should add a nos bottle to give it a final touch. I think it has one....just hadn't been added yet.... Good call! Thanks

Cool!  Thàt's a Beretta color combo you don't see every day. Very nice Chuck! Speaking of which, it's funny to see a Beretta in Pro-Street costume. There are quite a few of them in my area, together with the 5-door Corsica. Mostly they are driven by elder gentlemen with a top hat, thin moustache and stern-looking glasses. I never thought this would make a raw PS car.  Tim.

So I didn't have a decent set of decals with this kit, so I really needed to get creative... Not too sure if I am happy with this look or not, but it works....  Thanks

Sorry for the double post, but the great news is this one is done!!! I am unable to post this to my gallery until next month, but here are a few teaser photos. Overall, I was quite happy with this kit. For as old and cheap as it was, the kit had very few fit issues and the molding wasn't too bad. I have to admit that I am still not quite where I feel my skills could be... I left a lot of things undone where I could have just spent a little extra time and got them right. I thank everyone for their encouragement and promise to get better with these WIPs. Thanks for looking! Thanks

Haha, that's one wicked ride. Great work on the paint scheme and the decals. Another nice Pro-Streeter, well done Chuck! Tim.
