  1. I have used both GSW air brush and paint brush chrome. While not perfectly shiny, it meets my needs until something better comes along after I run out.
  2. I like the black with the blue interior. I did a recent Pontiac build in that color combo. https://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/187447-the-bad-girl-onyx-a-1965-pontiac-with-a-376hp-421-tri-power-and-a-4-speed-in-testors-metallic-black/
  3. I was trying to go all in on my smog era 74 H/O with a 455 Rocket Olds.
  4. Nice save. My wife's cat knocked off my 69 Mach One from a high shelf including a bounce off of a hard surface desk. It went into about 20 pieces. It took over a year to get around to putting it back together. It really was never show worthy anyway.
  5. I would love to see a 77 GP too. A shipmate when I was in the Navy had one and painted it metallic black with a bright gold laundau top and gold wheels. It actually looked pretty sharp. Unfortunately, it was stolen off of the Navy base in San Diego less than a month after he had it painted. Probably ran straight to Tijuana never to be seen again. I do have a really rough 1:25 resin copy of a 77 Can Am that I will likely not touch until I retire.
  6. Way cool build. Rally Sport and Red, White and Blue. Love it!
  7. Enjoy the kit bash! I have taken kit bashing to nearly everything I build.
  8. Very nicely done. Beautiful finish.
  9. 52 year old Grand Prix with a 25 year old paint job. Engine is still original with 129K. The best part is the 12 speaker stereo in the original interior.
  10. The 59 Fairlane with the retractable top. Revell 57 Nomad. (It intimidates me every time I open the box)
  11. That is a cool truck. I am sure there would be a lot of folks that would build one if they get one.
  12. Way Cool! I have never seen this livery.
  13. I am in the same club. My 3D printed 4 post hoists sag if the are left in the lifted position too long. However, I am glad I have them for my diorama. I have a 3D printed 1969 Grand Prix that I paid WAY too much money for. The chassis is all wrong but I bough a 70 Monte Carlo kit to fix that. I have enough parts box parts to make a go of it. I just am not yet capable to be able to body work all the layer texturing out of the body.
  14. All the above. Looks stunning.
  15. This is a cool project. It reminds me of my 74 Hurst/Olds I completed last year. Following.
  16. I got two of my boys to do a couple. They like being with me but I think the work-to-reward factor was not as satisfying as video games.
  17. Great job on some rarely seen automobiles.
  18. That is pretty nice, well done GTO.
