drodg Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 Hopefully last week of assembly since my wife makes me strip my work area for Christmas. I am being threatened or getting the looks. Anyhow this is a beautifully painted & detailed body by Mike Hanson of the new 68 GTO kit. Great lines and being a Craftsman kit pretty simple. Had a few issues with wheel backs not fitting on the pins and the rear axle weirdly not long enough but fairly easy fixes. Hopefully by next weekend posting under glass. I will eventually paint my own kit again once weather gets a bit better. Thanks everyone 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drodg Posted December 6, 2023 Author Share Posted December 6, 2023 That green is so great on the 68's. The color is so rich. I am using wsw tires that I think I bought from Modelhaus back when they were still in business as a full resin kit builder. I thought the wsw tires with the white stripes would be a good combo. Thanks everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
