ok so this one i know is a bit of a "bomb" i had this GTO kit laying around half complete since i was about 9 (im 22 now) i recently decided to finish it. i also had a 66 cobra kit that i bashed it with. this is the first time i tried any major custom touches and scratch built type of stuff. so please look past the bad paint :| as you can see i wedge chopped it, built custom roll pans front and back, removed all posts, lowered it, costom suspension, including a triangulated four bar, super long tube headers lol. and a custom interior. probably some other stuff im forgetting about.

be gentle lol

Yeah, it's pretty rough but I sure like your ideas, especially some of the shaping you've done on the back. I like the wheel treatment and kind of a cool "NASCAR" stance. Take your time, keep boning up on the modeling basics and avoid getting ahead of yourself. Looks like a pretty fun build. Grab another one and keep going. Let's see where you go from here.

thanks! yeah i already did another one, a 49 merc , that i have to get pics of. its the revell kit but i re-chopped it and did some other work. i like that one more its smooth but a bit of a paint bomb. i used candy from a rattle can and i always have some problems with it. im also working on a custom hemi dart roadster.
