Great find!!

I love those cars. Several years ago, I found a couple of "builder" MPC '68 GTOs in my travels. I was able to strip them clean, and cut them apart for re-assembly.

On this one, I decided on a vinyl roof. I used the chassis and underhood area from a 1969 442, as it gave me more detail than the original MPC Pieces. The engine came from the Revell '68 Firebird 400. This is one of my favorite builds.

I have one more to do, probably in Red to match a friend's one-to-one.

I am quite sure yours will be stunning.

Thanks Ron and yours look great.  I really like the dark Blue one.  I've got mine stripped already and working on the interior.  The chassis isn't the greatest but it's all I got to work with.  I was hoping that I didn't get burnt on this and I'm glad I didn't.  It is going to take a lot of work to get-er-done, but I do like a challenge.  And this one is a real challenge.  LOL.  Dan
