The red car in my signature is a Gunze SWB that shares the rolling chassis with the GTO.

Fantastic info, thank's very much. Have you built the 259 gto?? what did you do about the seats?? and did you use the kit tires. I can't find a suitable replacement set. do you know of another kit with good part's to bash from or just a really good 250 kit that is correct and proper? what about the MFH kit? have you seen or built it?? I know it's a lot of questions but with the price of some of these kits it's really disappointing to purchase one to find it's no where close to the subject.

Thank's Miloh.
