unclescott58 Posted October 27, 2018 Posted October 27, 2018 Here's a quick look. Before and after of Lindberg's old 1/32 Pontiac Grand Am. A snap kit of only fair detail. The body and exterior trim are okay. The chassis and especially the interior leave a lot to be desired. Despite being a snap kit, I did use glue. But, no paint. This is what you get straight out of the box.
forthlin Posted October 28, 2018 Posted October 28, 2018 I never had any idea anyone brought out a '73. I owned one of these back in the '80's & have wanted to build a copy for years. Would prefer a detailed 1/25 but I'll be happy with a 1/32 just to have a model of one.

The '73s had a different grill along with a different trunk lid, taillights, and rear bumper.
1972coronet Posted October 29, 2018 Posted October 29, 2018 Would love to see these make a comeback . Not my favoured scale , but... What's the status of the JoHan Oldsmobile Cutlass (Colonnade body --- 1975 ?) ? Yes , I realise that these 1/32 scale Grand Prix , etc. , are Lindberg .
disabled modeler Posted October 29, 2018 Posted October 29, 2018 Cool..! The Round2 needs to make a 1/25th of these for us....my family owned a 73 Grand AM...76 Can Am...73 GTO once and id love to be able to make replicas of them for my family owned collection.
Dave Darby Posted October 30, 2018 Posted October 30, 2018 I'd love to see one of those painted and foiled.
socal76 Posted November 3, 2018 Posted November 3, 2018 Dr Larry. you beat me to the punch. I was just getting ready to send a post about your Pontiac trans-kits.
