Very nice body work with the GTO! It's always nice to see when someone has enough patience to do bodywork like that. I know that I get usually fed up with it, and then the model might stay on the stash for a long time before it gets back on the bench.

Maybe I would paint those wheels like this, they would look more Old School.

nice engine work...

what did you use for the fuel line connector and fuel filter...

Fuel filter I made out of plastic tube..........and fuel line fittings I used wire.....the same wire I used to make spark pluge wire boots.

They only thing wrong with this kit(other than being 24th scale) is that you CANNOT make a PURE STOCK model of this car. UNFORTUNATELY, it comes with a 1969 dashboard. Little thing, I know, BUT it IS wrong in that depatment! The 68 GTO had a 68 ONLY dashboard! It was ONE YEAR ONLY design, and it changed for 69. Steve Milberry turned me on to that fact when he sent me a 68 resin cast dashboard he made. I got a unbuilt 68 off the bay, and sure enough, he's right! Since then ,I've always trusted his advice! :D;)
