Here's a restoration of mine, an MPC '71 Grand Prix

[Ron Hamilton]

I stripped the paint off this one, and put it in primer.

I replaced the kit wheels with a set of "honeycomb" wheels on Goodyear "Polyglas" whitewall tires, and added a body side moulding ( I may remove it).

I have a new steering wheel for it(Pontiac Custom sport wheel), and I plan to paint it a 1971 Pontiac color combination.

Looks great! Honeycombs are a nice touch.

I'm not digging the photo host at all because there's no way to adjust the images down to a viewable size. Ginormous images of model cars = :cry:

Nice restore. You don't see many of those around. Keep us updated.

Lookin' good so far Ron!.......I wish someone could see fit to repop this one in plastic or resin!

Bob, as far as the photo host..............I agree. I think you have to resize the pics on your hardrive (I have Paint Shop Pro) to keep them a reasonable size, but it would be nice if the photo host did that automatically. :?

Maybe 600-700 pixel range wouldn't be so bad..........

The honeycombs look awesome on there.

I would definitely love to see that get re-issued, but I don't think that is possible is it? Wasn't it turned into the superfly or whatever they called it?

That kit has so many possibilities. Hurst edition comes to mind.

I look forward to your finished resto!
