Beautiful builds. All you need are some life jackets, a cooler and some bikini clad ladies.?

Nice trimwork on all 3. BMF or another technique? I also love the silver over red combo.

I too would like to know about how you improved the headlight rings. Here is the best I could do with mine.

The detailing is exceptional. How did you get such a beautiful gloss finish?

I want to build one like this too. I have the tri-color stripes. What color did you use and where did you get the rear spoiler?

That turned out sweet. I would be very pleased if mine came out that well.

I am interested how this one turns out.

Kudos on both of your builds.

I have my doubts as well. The F&F version is quite chunky. That is not to say that you could not rework it and thin it down some. I would obviously need "rechromed" after such treatment.

Nice iron. Thanks for sharing. ?

Yeah, What he said...

I love Chargers, following.?

I agree the wheels really step it up. What are you doing for windows?

Cool, I'll be following. The only car trailer I have to build is in this kit.

'63-'64 I would suspect would have steelies for rims. I do not believe there were too many racers that would spend the cash on mags for their trailer.

That turned out sweet! I wish I had one.

That is way cool. The look on the wife's face is priceless. "Not ANOTHER project, sigh"

I did one of these a long time ago. I made some changes you may wish to consider in your build. I added a spare tire, made a strap/chain box and used textured paint for the deck.

I am enjoying the progress so far. The detailed rallys look great.

I too love that color. If I ever get the privilege of owning another 1:1 Grand Prix, it will be that color.

Very nice representation of something that is not readily available to the modeling community.

I picked up one of these recently too. Following.

I would like to follow along as well.

Just found this thread. Very interesting modifications and details. I sympathize with you on how changing things on the chassis plate affects the interior to body interface. I have a number of hours sorting out things like that on two builds in progress. (1970 El Camino Pro Street and a 1974 Hurst olds with chassis parts from a 66 GTO and a 67 Chevelle)

Very impressive mods and details. I love the body extension and the Susie coil box on the deck. I am also a big fan of the rectangular headlights. I did a couple of Freightliners a couple of years ago but not to the detail level you have. How finicky were the PE steps to assemble?
