I have one but never built it. It looked too toy like so perhaps customizing it is the way to go.

Interesting project. I like the effect on the stripe. White metal is not my favorite modeling medium, but you do end with a model that has a satisfying 'heft' to it. Is the 427 a Ford or Chevy?

This is a Ertl Metal Kit I started on a bit back, I added a resin GT350 front valance and GT500 Wheels on Corner 5 Big N Little Tires. For the paint I ground the center stripe with the Dremel to give it a interesting effect, then masked it off and spray Tamiya Medium Blue Metallic, then fogged Tamiya Dark Metallic Blur up and down both sides of the stripes, followed by some clear , I still have some polishing to do on it though. When I pulled it out today I didnt like the way I eliminated the rear bumper so I will redo it..hopefully it require a full re-paint. I have a parts pak 427cid engine that I think will look real nice under the hood.. more later! Chris
