1972 Pontiac Grand Safari resin kit

[jmk0303]

Too Many Projects resin kit. No interior with this one so I am building one from scratch. Not perfect, but should look okay once in the car.

I will have to do this a little different than a production kit as it will be too difficult to get a tub installed in this body. So I will have to mount the dash and door panels in first. Then install the seats and floor. Kind of pain and a bit of hope it will all fit correctly.

Great looking interior design.

That's a bunch of work!  It will look great when installed in the car.  What color do you plan to use on the interior?

Following this build! Im a sucker for a wagon!

Got the front and middle seat mounted to the floor and flocking laid. Door panels have been painted and detailed.

Awesome door panels.  Better than you'll find in plastic production

Ambitious and already looking great

Nice work! I have a 58 Edsel Sedan Delivery I'm stalled on, but I'm not sure how to tackle the interior sidewalls aft of the back seats. . Keeping an eye on this!

Thanks for everyone’s encouragement. This was a challenge. Everything you see here was scratch built with the exception of the steering wheel (MPC ‘69 Grand Prix), GM seat belt buckles from MCG, and the GM window cranks that are new from Iceman. We are now ready for install. The rear cargo area and third row seat are in. Next will be the dashboard and door panels.

Very nice scratch building. I like what you have done.

Would you happen to have ANY pieces left over from the 69 Grand Prix?

Unfortunately no. I bought the steering wheel as a separate piece. You might try eBay for specific parts.

Thank you for the reply.

Good progress so far.  I look forward to seeing this build completed.  Brings back childhood memories.  When I was a kid, my grandparents drove a 1974 Pontiac Catalina Safari wagon.

Finally got this one done. Overall I am pleased with the interior. Since it was my first try at a basically total scratch build, there are some dimensional issues that I will correct if I do this again (Have another resin wagon in the works). I made the door panels a little too long, dash top is a little too short, etc.) Again, mostly happy with it. I appreciate everyone following this one.

Great finish!
