tomsheehy Posted February 23, 2016 Posted February 23, 2016 (edited) 1962 Pontiac Catalina...sort of a restored build. I originally built this back when the AMT kit first came out, but the homemade decals I used back then sort of disintegrated. So I cleaned it all up and changed the livery to the New Hampshire State Police. The body is all plastic, I converted the AMT body into a 4 door with some filing, putty and plastic. Engine is fully detailed, lots of photo etch parts from the Model Car Garage set were used as well. Decals by Pursuit Plastics. My research shows that NH used Chevy Biscaynes in 62, but I read that their bosses usually had upgraded cars, so I went with the possibility that they may have used these. Overall it has held up pretty well over the years...http://media.fotki.com/1_p,rrbgkbwsrqrkwksxsrfqsqgfsbt,vi/bsfsskdbqxwdkttwrwtxswfbrrbkk/4/41561/87990/photo4-vi.jpghttp://media.fotki.com/1_p,rrbgkbwsgqwrtwdxsrfqsqgfsbt,vi/bsgrftrgkxbdtqddsgxbsfgbftkk/4/41561/87990/photo4-vi.jpghttp://media.fotki.com/1_p,rrbgkbwrrsfqsqrxsrfqsqgfsbt,vi/bsgrftrgkxfrfqrfkbxwtwtqtfwk/4/41561/87990/photo6-vi.jpghttp://media.fotki.com/1_p,rrbgkbwrgkqrrsrxsrfqsqgfsbt,vi/trgsgdrkxswqfkgwbwxwdttffqkw/4/41561/87990/photo1-vi.jpg Edited February 23, 2016 by tomsheehy
