Restored 70 Pontiac GP ?

[Porscheman]

This one took very little of my time. I bought this at a swap meet yesturday in Wayne NJ. I was told this Grand Prix is very rare being done in black. I couldn't leave this one alone, so I added BMF, The Detailer black wash and highlighted the wheel and emblems with Tamiya's clear red.

I wish someone would reissue this one.

Question, detail rare promo's or leave them alone? You know my answer.

Thanks for looking.

Very nice Al... love those 69,70 Grand Prixs...hope to get mine restored someday in the future.

[bbowser]

Very nice. I agree, it's your model-do what makes you smile!

[Geno]

Look at my profile pic lol. You know what I think about these GP's. You done it justice.

[Eshaver]

That car had some of the best bucket seats I ever sat in . Shoot, the seats alone I think allowed me to sell four of them that year ..............

[realgone58]

That looks stunning Al! I detail all my promos too. I just can't leave them alone.

[MyBradKeselowski]

Beautiful Grand Prix ! !

Well done..

[slusher]

That looks really sharp Al.

Another great build, Al!

Brings back a lot of memories for me - I had the 1:1 back in the mid-70s...

[peekay]

Very nicely done.

[PappyD340]

Another super NICE build Al, you did good!!

[Chris White]

nice work

I modified mine.Not to Hijack your thread but here's a before/after shot of mine. At least it didn't get thrown away.

Fine work on the Promo . Make it yours as the new saying goes.

Antonio yours looks also.

[Ramfins59]

Another great job Al. Yes sir, I also believe in redoing promos to make them the way you want them. I've done about 6 of them of 50's cars already with another 6 or 7 in the pile yet to do and a bunch more if I can get them.

[Danno]

Very nice, Al. You, too, Antonio.

I just picked up a '71 built up last weekend. Got to figure out what I'll be doing with it . . . have a couple of ideas in the hatching stages.

[Ron Hamilton]

There you go again.

Generally, if something is particularly rare, I advocate leaving it alone, but this is nicely-done and looks really good, Al.
