modelmatt Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 (edited) This is a first attempt to modify a box build. It's not perfect but I was happy considering it was trial and error. Edited March 13, 2017 by modelmatt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeeCee Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 First attempt!! Well i hope it's not your last, this has turned out just great,  it it obvious there were a few hic-ups, but nothing big,and as long as you learn from them, the next one will be even better.  This is a great example of trying stuff. VERY NICE BUILD..

JerseyRed Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 I think you switched years with your GTO you posted, this is the '68 not '66. Both are very cool though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

espo Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 Another great build. You really have your paint jobs dialed in. Is this based on the Revell or the AMT kit?? The hood just looks like the AMT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modelmatt Posted March 12, 2017 Author Share Posted March 12, 2017 (edited) Another great build. You really have your paint jobs dialed in. Is this based on the Revell or the AMT kit?? The hood just looks like the AMT. It was the AMT kit, The front fenders were separate. Thanks and yes it took a lot of trial and misses to finally get it right. If I could only keep the dust off, I wouldn't have to spend so much time sanding them out. lol Edited March 12, 2017 by modelmatt explanation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
