Corvette Stingray 1965 by Maito: Blue beauty!
One of Maisto's finest models.

Love the 1/1 too, probably the sexiest American car ever made... this and the GT40 together... but the GT40 was designed by the Europeans... so this is the sexiest ever.

Also, I cut that baseball bat like antenna and glued in an acupuncture needle... the thing went in my thumb twice in the process, but its nice, you don't feel a thing. It looks much better now. What do you guys think? Should I use something else? Suggestions are welcome.

Onto the photos now:

The new antenna:

Beautiful rims and lettered tires:

Nice interiors, the seats, dash, dials are very well done - just add carpets, if you can:

Maybe the best Maisto engine bay:

Another Kick-ass model and photographs from you! Seems you are in the mood of kicking asses today Tongue
Really, kudos to Maisto for this. I saw this in flesh (the one Srinjay bought) and it is really good both finish and price wise. The only thing I felt, if the headlights could have been opened, it would have taken this to an another level. Nonetheless this is sexy!

Awesome car Guggga, love the presence of the car in the 1st pic. Surely this is one among the best work of Maisto along with 500k, Mclaren SLR ...

Good thing, I got one from you. The interiors and the engine is well detailed. Your shots especially the interiors & engine bay is crispXyxthumbs

The antenna isn't bad may be a small little cap thingy on the tip might do it good.

WHOA that was fast Guggster!!! This blue is better than the red I've. Its indeed one of the best works of Maisto, beats the crap out of many costlier models. The engine, wheels interiors, everything has come out so nicely in your shots. I would suggest you to keep that antenna, it looks perfect.

+1 from my end Big Grin
