As Steve stated. It is personal preference. I clear after decals and foil. That way they stay down with handling. Some solvent based clears can wrinkle decals. That is why my 69 ZL-1 has never been taken to a show.?

I have had those blue dot tail lights on two different Grand Prixs. I got them from JC Whitney mail order in the late 80's. The car in the pics has a scratch built LED array inside with 4 blue LEDs behind every blue dot.

That turned out WAY COOL!. Did you use diodes for the fuel filters?

Very nicely done. Great color. I did not know you could get A/C on Six-pack engines. What are your ignition wire looms made from? Photo-etch?

I concur. The 69 Olds 442 chassis is an excellent piece for its level of detail.

You would be referring to this issue.

Those door panels are D**n impressive. The fit, the finish the crispness. Amazing work.

While I do have the 1994 release in my stash, I am glad to see it come out. Especially the big decal sheet.

OK. I misunderstood you. You did not mean that there were only 3 choices total for a Grand Prix, just that there was only 3 recommended choices with Irish Mist paint.

There were actually more color choices on the Grand Prix than any other model.

That is a nice decal scheme. You could easily change it to 7up or Ginger Ale.

I do not know if it has been mentioned, but rain gutters above the windows with or without trim. They allow you to drive at speed with the windows down. Modern cars and their slippery shapes let the the wind buffet your ear drums. It is so unpleasant, you roll the windows up.

Good luck on your build. I have the Nicky kit to get to when I am in a Camaro mood.

Nice GP. I am slowly working on one as well. What kit did that intake come from? What was your technique to do the tail lights?

That is very nicely detailed. Almost makes me want to get one. I know I could not build one that nice any cheaper.

Amazing detail in progress. Your resilience in fixing boo boos is admirable.

Ambitious conversion. Following.

I have the left 3 and the one on the right (my favorite). I use a modified Pana-vise with a very heavy base to hold my work for me. My dremel is a 110v variable speed unit. While I have yet to do a car grille, I did open up the vents on my Freightliners from the back side.

Way cool fab work!

Mine is straight out the back, slightly past the bumper and slash cut. The tips are 4" diameter, 22" long and chrome plated. They are actually marketed for trucks.

I have been driving and owning cars for 46 years. I cannot say I have ever had a bad one. I spent more time modifying them than I ever did fixing them. I have had my last Grand Prix for 24-25 years and my wife's Durango for 18 years. It pays to take care of and garage them. Weather seems to be the biggest car killer.

Very nice Challenger. I built one years ago before I had an airbrush. I should try again.

Leg room. Almost every thing made today has the inner wheel well intruding into the footwell. Look at anything new and the rear of the front wheel opening is within 4" of the front door opening. My Grand Prix has 19"! The second thing is the corners of the car sticking up high enough to KNOW whether or not you will clear the obstacle. Modern jelly beans do not have this feature.

Very nice so far. Following.

You could make it a Paddy wagon as the occupants would be sitting instead of lying down.
