Gto!
...the Pontiac, not the Ferrari!

Here's one I just finished, Revell-Monogram's 1966 GTO. It's finished with Tamiya's Italian Red spray paint, and I "rechromed" the front and rear bumpers with Alclad II after stripping them in Castrol Super Clean.

I hope you guys like it!

Re: Gto!

Castrol may be Super Clean, your model is, too!!!

That is a stunner! The GTO is one of my favourite American cars, and your model does it justice.

Wow, incredible. The interior is especially well done. Very clean build, I want to hop in and drive it away.
