AMT 63 Pontiac Bonneville Convertible

[Helix]

Another oldie from my stash finally done.

A real nice kit for it's age and the parts were in good condition with hardly any flash, decided to go sort of stock as this kit has a few options, went for the dual carb intake and the custom lowered setting 

The only upgrade to this was using a brand new set of AMT Round 2 white walls, Testors Classic White duco with Tamiya semi gloss Black for the interior. BMF and a few little details.

Cheers

Nice job.  Have the very same kit sitting in the basement stash, unbuilt.  I'll likely attack the Moebius 61 before I get to this.

I have one in need of a total resto. This came out very nicely.

Beautiful build, such a nice color for the car.

Looks real nice Ray, love the dropped look and its great to see these old kits built up like they should be instead of sitting on the shelf.

[mangodart]

Very nice build, it sits a bit too low on the rear for me but really nice detail

[maltsr]

Nice clean build, Ray

[Modelbuilder Mark]

Very nice cruise mobile!

[John Goschke]

Nice work! You're careful detail painting really sets it off. An antenna that's more in scale would make it even better!

[dodgefever]

That's nice.  I've been looking for a reasonably priced '63 hardtop for a dog's age, but no joy.

Beautiful, looks very classy in white.  Great detailing on the dash.

Excellent job on this! It's great to see a bit different Pontiac than the '62 Catalina we usually see (Nothing wrong with that either, it's a beautiful car too). Very nice paint work and sharp BMF. Black wash on that grille looks extremely realistic, too. When I saw the first picture I thought it was a Photo Etch part, but then I realized that probably no one has done a PE set for this kit...

Excellent work!

Those outside pics really show it off well, also nice to note that AMT didnt do a bad job on those 8 lug wheels over 50 years ago !
