    Default Corvette c5 die-cast project

    My kids (10 months, 3 years and 5 years old) bought me this corvette die cast for Christmas.

    Today I was bored and decided to make a replica of my car.

    disassembly sanding and blemish repair

    A couple coats of yellow





    I also tinted the taillights, made a matching license plate, painted the seats and carpet black to match my car.

    Now it’s time to be patient and wait before starting reassembly
