Chuck Most Posted July 31, 2011 Posted July 31, 2011 Beautiful buildup of a beautiful car. JoHan. Yep, and this is one of their best kits.
charlie8575 Posted July 31, 2011 Posted July 31, 2011 This came out very nicely, Bruce. The color looks nice on it. Charlie Larkin
Adam deCoste Posted July 31, 2011 Posted July 31, 2011 very nice, theres a guy who lives right near me who owns two Toronados
Ron Hamilton Posted July 31, 2011 Posted July 31, 2011 Very Nice Bruce. Your build made me get out an old restoration that has been languishing in my basement for the past 15 or so years. I was going to sell it, but after looking at yours, I have to work on it.
Space Cowboy Posted July 31, 2011 Author Posted July 31, 2011 Very nice Bruce..I didn't know their was a Toronado kit, from the bottom shot I'd say AMT ??? JoHan. I wish to thank all who posted comments...Now to tell the truth this kit is in a picture to follow.........
cruz Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 Very cool, I won one of them through eBay, glad to see one built!
Monty Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 Looks like it turned out great, Bruce! I've got the same kit languishing in my ever-growing "git-er-done" pile. Did you encounter any assembly difficulties when your were building this one?
W-409 Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 This is really great model! Clean build. Paintjob and color are looking really cool, and that grille is really nicely washed with black. It's looking very realistic. I like the overall look, and the engine is nice, and I like the seats on the interior, and the headrests. (or what are they called...) Nice model, keep these coming. I like watching these your builds, and they are coming fast, but they look still nice.
Tonioseven Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 BEAUTIFUL build!! I like everything about it!!!
MrObsessive Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 Nice and clean Bruce! You're a better man than I 'cuz I've had this kit for years but it's so nice---------I almost hate to touch it! Ain't that crazy??
Eshaver Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 What so mpressed me about this car was the "Over- the Top " engineering " that was in this car. I worked on several of these cars when they were fairly new . . I saw steering boxes , suspension and a transfer case that was well excicuted and designened to withstand much more than the 455 would ever produce . Ed Shaver
MrObsessive Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 Ed, if you remember-------Oldsmobile was once GM's technology leader. Whatever GM wanted to introduce new, Olds was usually one of the divisions to get it first. Automatic trans, hardtop styling, OHV V8's, wraparound windshields, autronic eye headlights, FWD-------etc. What did Oldsmobile in was GM stopped letting them be the leader, and let them become an also ran like all the other companies. I'll say that Olds started to die a slow death starting in the '70's sadly.
