Nice work, It's fun building a kit of a car you had had isn't it?
Great job!

I had to make it out of a Cavalier Dealer promo and the front and rear facias from the Revell J-2000 pro-street car.A Fieo kit donated its engine and other parts had to be scratch-built.(Likethe McPhearson struts)._

That brings back memories, my first new car was an 86 J2000, but mine was a coupe not a hatchback.
