'64 Pontiac GTO Hardtop

Built last summer. Box stock (except colours) - paint straight from the rattle can. First kit I built using washes & the results were better than I could have imagined! Like the Bugatti, it's been on the shelf for a while so is a bit dusty, especially inside.












And lastly, a taster of the 1:16 Bandai Bugatti Royale (that I'm building at the moment) and also the Heller Merc 500K

Re: '64 Pontiac GTO Hardtop

Thanks guys!

It was quite a nerve wracking build as amongst other things, the distributor had to be rescued from the vacuum cleaner bag... The wheel arches and sills (IIRC, rocker panels in the USA) are supposed to have chrome trim on them too but I didn't trust myself enough to be able to paint these properly - the window frames were tricky enough & they're much more sharply defined!

very nice. I like that you chose to keep it mostly stock.
