'67 Pontiac GTO ( My Goat )

[dingo]

This is one of the models that arrive just a week or so ago and I decided to pull out my finger and build it a bot quicker than most of my other kits.


The colour is Sky Blue over Ocean Blue and the stance is kit provided with those crazy little lowering blocks that they supply.


Here is a little bit of detail work on the dash, this is the first time I've tried something like this and I sure hope U like wot I've done. The units R a radio/cassette at the bottom and an air conditioning set-up with gauges and gauge rings, all PE stuff is from Model Car Garage.

Well I've now finished my Goat and it was the fastest build I've ever done on a car it took me only a week mind U I didn't do half the things I was going to do but then I never do, I guess I'm just lazy or want to have the model on the shelf. This is the first time though that I've done any detail work in quite a long time and the air filter a top of the super charger is a MCG part along with the gauges and the radio and air cond controls so I suppose it's a start to doing more detailed work.


I was going to out these wheels on the car then saw that they R a 4 stud wheel so I replaced them with the ones below.


The exhaust represents an Australian brand called Redback and the real mufflers actually have Redback Spiders on then. The Redback spider is a South Australian spider and is very poisonous and can make U very sick.

Sorry if I put this in twice but it shows how the air cleaner sticks up above the bonnet, I had to cut a hole in the bonnet which disappointed me as it ruined a good set-up that I had. Oh well.

Hope U like the stance.

Typical muscle car exhaust one hangs lower than the other.

Well as U can see by other photos on the thread the paint work is not all that good I found out Y, afetr placing it on another forum they commented on the paint work so I decided to strip it back as I was going to make a beater out of it and when most of the paint was off I found it had no Primer don't ask me how I missed the primer but i did so after completely stripping the paint off I hit it with some primer and presto its come up trumps with a good paint job so I'll finish it of with the chrome work and place it back in the display cabinet along side its convertable cousin.
