Fresh off the bench today.  A pretty straight forward build, wired up the engine bay, Keith Marks decals, and Fireball Modelworks tire lettering decals.  I separated the exhaust from the rear axle, threw on some aluminum tips, and added some parts box shocks since none are supplied with this kit.  Hopefully the Mopar gods don't strike me down, as it is painted in Model Master Huggar Orange.  I love how it ended up looking in this color.  A fun build that has become one of my favorites among my herd of builds.  Thanks for taking a gander and any comments & questions.

That is sharp as a tack Tony! The paint, stance and foil work are really nice! That's one of my favorite Monogram kits from back in the day. I have one in the stash to build someday. Yours makes me want to build it right now! Nice work!

Excellent work on your GTX! Your paint and foil work is superb. I really like the finishes you gave the interior as well, they’re very convincing.

Great wheel and tire choice too. Those torque thrusts are ‘all business’!

Beautiful looking paint and body trim. Perfect stance for the subject. very clean looking under the hood as well as the interior.

I really appreciate all the nice comments guys!  This is a pretty decent kit.  Like the other Monogram musclecar kits it's fairly simplified, but does build up well and looks the part.  One regret I have is not deepening the panel lines to get some wash in them.  After primer & paint they got buried a fair bit and figured they would look a little messy if I tried throwing some Tamiya panel line in them.  Oh well.

Thanks Snake.  I have a few other pics I had taken.  Anything in particular you'd like to see?
