64 Pontiac GTO Progress

Here is a 64 Pontiac GTO by Revell Monogram that I have started. The body is in primer right now waiting on me to decide between white or red for the exterior, and what color combo to do the interior. The wheels are from a 68 GTO by Revell. It will sit at stock height when I finish paint detailing the suspension/exhaust system. I am planning on wiring and plumbing the engine with a Scale Repro's Plus distributor, Detail Master wing nut valve cover bolts, fuel lines, brake lines and battery hardware. Anyway, here is the pic

I have the wing nut valve cover bolts in place and the spark plug wires ready to go to the block. still a little more work to do on the motor and it will be good.

Here are some more progress shots of the 64 GTO that I am working on. The distributor wiring is done and the valve cover wing bolts are installed(what a pain in the a$$). I still have to paint detail the belt and pulley system and wire up the battery and alternator. I also have to decide on what color the body and interior will be. But that is down the road a little ways. Any way, here is the link to the pics that I have gotten done so far. Comments are welcome.

That engine looks trick. Been curious to see the wingnuts in action, haven't seen them on a model before. Keep us posted on this pretty little goat.

Got some more work done on my 64 GTo today. I have uploaded the pics to my Fotki Account where they can be viewed. The chassis is complete. I decided to raise the rearend up a little and wanted an anodized look on the rear springs and shocks. So, I painted them enamel silver chrome and when they dried, i went over them with acrylic clear red. Comments are welcome and here is the link.64 GTO

Got some more work done on the 64 GTO. Painted the body gloss white, finally after 2 trips into lake Castol. Now, I have to paint the hood, nose piece and interior and put it all together. Take a look and let me know what you think. 64 GTO
