  1. Finished this last night. I owned a 1967 Bonneville in this color. It was a sharp looking car. I actually lowered the axels about an 8th of an inch because I thought it sat too low.
  2. It looks like the real deal. Nice build.
  3. Thank you. :-)
  4. Thank you. I will use that color again on a GM car. It's hard to find light metallic colors. Especially green. The kit came with black walls and it just didn't look right. The whitewall made a big difference. Being 65 years old. Whitewalls were the thing when I was young. I wish they would include them in all the older car kits. I have 2 more Grand Slam kits and I bought them mainly for the white walls. Oh. And it was the second build I tired the black in the door and trunk opening but it leaves a shadow effect I don't like. Tried to buff them out but they wouldn't. And I thought using a water based acrylic craft paint that it would work.
  5. This was a started kit I bought off facebook with some others. It was painted a dark navy blue. Engine half built. Striped it and here it is. My grandmother had a 1966 Delta 88 this color. That was one beautiful car. White walls from the 1965 “Grand Slam” Grand Prix.
  6. I agree. All of these are amazing. I wish I was as talented.
  7. No Tom. I was going to list it for sale at a Facebook site "Deal or No Deal, the parts". I put a 66 corvette at that site. A guy offed $5. I accepted and he's never followed up. First time I try something to recoup some cash and it goes bust.
  8. A lot of nice saves.
  9. Really nice Steve.
  10. It looks great. I like those snap kits.
  11. So it's really just there for nothing? That wheel does fit in it. It's about the size of a half dollar. Thank guys. I know someone would know.
  12. They are in the AMT 1965 Grand Prix “Grand Slam” kit. No mention in the instructions as what to do with them. Thank you..
  13. Really nice
  14. Looks great.
  15. Cute little bugger. Nice.
  16. That is really nice.
  17. I changed all my can upright now. They took less space laying sideways. I'm going to build a shallow shelving unit so I can mount it to the wall. 2 cans deep. It will be much easier to store.
