Agreed. beautiful job!   I'm interested in getting the '63 to build the getaway car from My Cousin Vinny!  I'll need a '64 Skylark as well haha.

Stunning build with extremely crisp paint and foil work!  Love that color, too.  Beautiful photography as well. "10s" straight across!

X2, just an outstanding model car!

It's like a step back in time! A superb job. Your colour choice is terrific, rather unusual and unexpected. Super photos too.

As the owner of a real 64 you did an outstanding job the only thing I would change is the color of the steering wheel , the 4 spoke wheel represents the factory 64 only wood wheel.

Thanks for the input Troy. The model came without a steering wheel so I bought a Modelhaus replacement (which represented the standard 2-spoke wheel) but it was broken by the time I got to it. Pity I didn't notice that the 4-spoke should have a wooden rim though - aside from being correct it would have added a dash more colour to an otherwise rather dark interior. It's a bit late now.

I think I could have done better with the rear "grille" - looks like the tail lights should have thin chrome strips and the grille between them should match the lights - or is that just on GTOs?

I would like to have used the kit's original stock Tempest hubcaps too but couldn't figure out a way to detail them nicely.
