67 GTO

[RAMBENNA]

Up for your viewing pleasure, MPC 67 Pontiac GTO. I needed this car to complete my GTO collection but this kit is a bugger to build and make look good. the box says new tool but for new tool there was a lot of flash to clean up and some fit problems, just looking for a review mirror in my spares box. painted with Tamiya TS-39 MICA RED.    Took the pictures inside ,its just to cold outside here right now. as always your comments are appreciated.

You did a nice job with that wretched turd of a kit. Well done a model on!

[blunc]

I concur.

 

Someday I have to turn one of those turds into a replica of my 67 Tempest.

Nice clean build. Looks like the crowd also agrees.

[RiskiestLion]

great for what it was did the wheels come stock ? its actually one of my favorite models of the gto 

[Mr Stock]

You did a good job on a not so good a kit......Ive heard so many horror stories about this kit that I think Id like to try and build one soon just because I like a challenge.

 

[Cardz]

Nice job on a not so nice kit.I'm solving some of my problems with this kit by bashing the body with the AMT '67 Malibu Pro Street kit

thanks for the comments, yes it is a bad kit this is my second one.  looks good with my collection but it won't be so soon that I try another

[ChrisR]

Nice!

Good looking model. Is this kit really the turd everybody says it is? Or is it just an old tool, that is not as nice as recently tooled up kits, like Revell's '66 GTO? Seems like more than a few guys here, including Cliff here, have built some decent looking '67 GTOs from this kit.

Nice job! Especially considering what you had to work with!

I love that Mica Red!

I do all my photo-taking inside, where I can be assured of a consistent light source. I have recently started to use the "daylight" setting for white balance, with flash, and it's produced the most realistic looking photos... just as if it were outside.

It's a 48 year old kit that was a converted promo. At least the exhaust are separate.

It seems okay to me. Can't compare it to the Revell 1966 GTO.

its pretty bad but workable , lots of sanding fit problems and just a lot of adjusting. the front lights and bumper don't fit and the tail lights will not go into the slots created for them, so just a challenge.
