Super that the all important 406 fender emblems are there and the good looking oval air cleaner is perfect. Classic.

Home Run. Looking very real. Reminds me of seeing them on the street. When I get around to building mine I may try several paint combinations. Thanks for posting.

Love this drag machine. Color, stance and everything is home run. Shouldn't have to fight poor fitment but you did and a winner! Thanks for posting.

Bingo! I'm a many decades long Pontiac fan and all of your research is spot on. All of your details are great and correct. Good looking model. I need to start mine. Thanks for posting this.

Yes! HPI Guy channel is very good. Very in depth, fast building and model contents review. All of this in a short, compact format. He helps you navigate through the problems. -
Cool as heck. I have had this kit for a long time and have not started it yet. Agree on the changes you plan to make. Making it your own!
-
Very nice. I have not started mine yet and trying to decide on the color. A silver-grey range of colors is one of my favorites. It looks good on yours. I'm also trying to decide on the color of the wheels. Thanks for this.

Tamiya Porsche 934 RSR

Killer color combos. Super tire decals. This gives me ideas on waking my 911 kits up. -
Nice B! Not often seen color. You nailed it. Great trim. There's a lot of it on a B.

Okay, here goes on the Montana Hardcore rattle can after a little time working on it: Bought at the chain Ace Hardware about $6. Haranga Orange. It markets it self as for large art displays and graffiti artists. Nothing on the can or site about appropriate surfaces. Temp was 71F and 26% humidity. Sprayed over non primed white model car hood and it smelled a lot like a lacquer but was thick like enamel. Very opaque. Almost a grainy appearance. After 24 hrs I tried rubbing the single coat out with Mequire's mirror glaze 205 ultra finishing polish with a cotton terry rag. No. real improvement. After 24 more hours same materials. No real improvement After 24 more hours same material, a bit better. I guess it is more Enamel than anything else and I have rushed it. I like the price, opaqueness and variety of colors but have been spoiled by Tamiya rattle cans. I don't have the patience now to correctly deal with slow drying paint. Hope this helps those interested.

Love it! The original Goat. Checking out the TriPower carbs too.

Great 64! Trying to read the engine emblem on the front fenders------is it 390 or 427?
-
Looks seriously fast. Super!

Remembering back in the day a silver one with the 421 emblems on the fender in my home town. Some one in the know said that "Something that big should not be that fast!" They even had 3 two barrel carbs (Tri-Power) as an option.

Good looking Mark 5. That's the one GTI kit that I don't have. Love the GTI's I drive the 1:1 for several years.

Home Run. Super idea to have the gold stripe running over Wimbledon rather than the usual black. Loving the engine bay too. -
Checking out the good looking engine bay with the perfect dual snorkel air cleaner covering the dual quads.
-
Psycho is over the top! Never thought about having the entire body raise up, not just a flip front. Loving the big injection stacks.

Thanks for the wheel painting tip skymnky

Really good ? Like the idea of a blue with the blue stripe as an option instead of white with the blue stripe. Clean. When I get around to mine, I hope my wheels turn out good like yours. Thinking that getting the black deep down between the spokes is going to be tough.
