Thank you all (Brandon, Greg and Lee) for taggin’ along. I’m not much on OOB builds and this one wasn’t all that hard to stay within the guidelines of OOB because there’s no aftermarket stuff for these that I know of. Regardless of that fact , it was nice to just “build a model” for a change instead of “Raise the Titanic”.
Outstanding work! [t$t] [t$t] [t$t]

Stay Safe.
The end of the Pontiac era. Nice piece of American muscle Joe.
Bravo Joe! You managed to nail your OOB effort flawlessly. It looks absolutely fantastic all around. I am so very proud of you.
Joe,
Well done sir, well done.[Y]
That’s weird about the warp in the chassis but she turned out perfect! Other than the differently coloured interior she’s the spitting image of my car. I’ve got to get me one of these, thanks for pointing out issues in the kit. Now I just need to be able to paint a good gloss finish.
Jim: Thanks bud!!
Chad: Always good seeing you man and thanks!!
Joe: I really didn’t think I could pull an OOB build off. Thanks for taggin’ along brother.
Lew: 'Preciate the very kind words.
Cliff: I think that was a mistake on my part for not keeping a close enough eye on it when clamping things together during the adhesion process. I can help you with that gloss finish whenever you are ready. It’s a fail safe method pal.
Thanks Mustang!!! I’ve had a couple of auto modelers in our club give me advice on glossy finishes too but you can’t have too much!!!
No problem Cliff. I tried the whole Future approach once but you really can’t do anything polish wise on it once it’s on. At least I couldn’t. Turned out a mess.
