Appreciating your reports on this. A friend just received his and we are all looking forward to pouring over it at our next model club meeting in a couple of weeks.
Thinking that there is a lot of room for creative paint and equipment options.
Any 1970-1994 Alfa Romeo Spider convertible. I have owned 3 real ones. They were sold in most countries worldwide for decades!
Any Fiat 124 Sport Spider from 1966-1973. I have owned one. They were sold in most countries worldwide for decades!
Thanks for this. Watching with interest and looking forward to a kit/ build review. Just built my first Atlantis kit- Fireball Dragster-a lot of fun.
This Competition Coupe could be cool.
Okay, thank you. I'll check out my kits for the largest diameter lights. I'm on the hunt for the largest. I agree, the black paint does make them appear larger. I think I saw some 1930 Cadillac lights and they were very large and cool.
Thought I knew about most of the kits out there and was I ever wrong.
This is very cool ! Great job and clear pics.
Wondering when the kit was released and approximate price when new.
Glass case for this monster.
Good kit! I built it long ago. The 8 lug wheels are crisp and accurate and the Tri Power carbs are realistic. Of all the full size Pontiac models that have the 421 engine, this one is the only one with the emblems provided.
People will correctly point out that the body is too long and actually a reworked Bonneville body but we are lucky to have this kit available.
I built my SMER Alfetta in the 90's and it is one of my favorite modelcars. Problem though is the very, very faint engraving on the nose. I didn't know what to do to try to make the grill at least look like a grill so it was simply sprayed red like the rest of the car. If they only provided a grill !
