This kit is a glaring example as to why I don't put paint anywhere near a model until I've checked as much as possible the parts fit. I think I can count on one hand on this one where when two parts needed to be joined they did so without a major fight. Trimming, cutting, sanding. I'm sure the build took twice as long as it should have. If I wasn't such a softie for mid 60s Pontiacs I probably would have put it unfinished back in it's box to maybe try again later.

Anyway, rant over and at least I ended up with a pretty good model that I'm generally happy with.

The finished build looks great. Like the interior detail and the color goes well with the body paint.

Nice that you persevered there Garry, the end result was worth it. That blue interior looks great against the black, well done. 

Cheers,

Nice work. I see lots of modelers who paint and foil the body FIRST... good luck if something goes sideways and there are fit issues.
