I can't tell if its a '66 or'67 since there is no front or rear view but as far as I there there was never a '66 GTO Convertable model kit. So good question David.

Raoul Ross Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 (edited) The first IDoJ GTO was actually tan, was only in one or 2 episodes and ended up becoming the first MonkeeMobile, true fact. That's why the MonkeeMobile has a tan dash/steering wheel. Nice job on the Goat, Gustavo! Edited February 16, 2023 by Raoul Ross Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers,David. 😎👍 The above photo is a ‘67. I understand that the ‘66 convertible went on to become the Monkeemobile No. 2 (the one with the A/C vents in the dashboard) after the 1966 season. ‘I Dream of Jeannie’ promoted Pontiacs in the show. (‘Bewitched’ promoted Chevrolets.) Edited February 16, 2023 by blizzy63 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gustavo Reis Posted February 16, 2023 Author Share Posted February 16, 2023 Thank you guys. espo, this is The Revell 66 GTO kit, I remove the roof and replace with the AMT 65 GTO, also made some modifications to look like 67. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Original MonkeeMobile was a tan '66 without A/C... it was a bare bones stocker with a top round push-button gear selector. The second car was a '67 with the rectangular gear selector. (The grills kinda give it away) The *Model* of the MonkeeMobile is a mashup of the original and the 2nd version. The original had no A/C and a solid-mounted rear suspension as Dean thought they wanted a wheelie car. The original also had only the resonators replacing the original mufflers with the downspouts exiting just in under the rear axle. These are pix of the original and 1st MonkeeMobile. Note the purple(?) carpeting. The lever on the right side of the driveshaft tunnel is the chute release. Also note that the 1st MonkeeMobile had a pin-stripe down the side, the second '67 verson did not.
