RandyB. Posted November 30, 2018 Posted November 30, 2018 Well the 1965 Pontiac GTO is finished. Very old kit with many inaccuracies. Chrome was bad on the bumpers but it's together now. Did the best I could in spite of the kit's condition.
Dave Darby Posted November 30, 2018 Posted November 30, 2018 Looks great. Round2 ought to tool up a new front bumper/headlight assembly. I think Missing Link does or did make correct original style in resin.
shoopdog Posted November 30, 2018 Posted November 30, 2018 Your GTO turned out great, very nice indeed.
Snake45 Posted November 30, 2018 Posted November 30, 2018 You did about as well as can be done with that old crock, my friend! 31 minutes ago, Dave Darby said: Round2 ought to tool up a new front bumper/headlight assembly.

Hopefully someone will pick this up sometime soon.

They still have a few parts left. I checked. No front bumper/grille only rear bumper for the '65 GTO http://www.modelhaus.com/

I did get a rear bumper. Just took a look at it and offhand I don't see any difference between it and the reissue kit part. Maybe the molding is a little crisper, or something.
donb Posted December 1, 2018 Posted December 1, 2018 Nice looking GTO. The red / white combo works nicely
