espo Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Great looking GTO. The paint finish and interior look great together. Building a model of past owned cars is always a treat and a few flashbacks along the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drifterdon Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 Fantastic job on your Goat. The 1/25 version looks just like the 1/1 version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeatMan Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Nice work! When I was young I had an older cousin with a 69 Goat. It was white with a white interior and I was totally in love with that car. We referred to him as "the cool cousin", and not just because of the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've done the same with a couple I've owned . . . unfortunately one of them suffered the same fate as your GTO . Thanks Bob. I've recently started building more replicas of cars from my younger days and while they can sometimes be more difficult than customs or modified rides, the can also be more rewarding too. Sorry your old ride faced the same fate as my GTO -- ouch! -- hopefully you modeled it and at least have a replica to fill some of the void.

Great to get the compliments, Steve -- Thanks! and nice to get a confirmation that building meaningful cars from our past is a worthwhile direction. On 1/5/2024 at 1:10 AM, ismaelg said: Very nice! Beautiful job with an important story behind it. Thank you Ismael for the kind comments. So many cars play roles in our lives and they each have a story. I hope yours are memorable also.

Enjoyed the mention of your cousin and his GTO. I've owned two different ones and they were truly my favorites over the years (long time Pontiac guy). Wish I still had 'em . . .

Thank you David! Your comments are appreciated. I'm leaning toward doing more of my real-life rides (when/if I can find the pieces) and I'll take the encouragement 'cuz you're right: The flashbacks are a kick . . .

Only wish the model could be translated back to the 1:1 . . . without the wreckage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
