| This an older MPC kit of the legendary 1967 GTO. To start with the kit had an automatic shift plate in the console, but had a Muncie m-20 manual transmission. DUH! I removed the dual gate shift plate and made the correct 4 spd Hurst shifter in its own pod, off set from the center of the console. Pontiac off set the shifter to make as close to the linkage as possible, and you could power shift without leaning forward, so as to have better control. I added the clutch, brake, and parking brake pedals also. The engine depicts the H.O. 360 hp 400 ci. engine. woodgrain was hand painted. I tossed the generic hollow tires and added the correct Wide Ovals, these are from SEL. I created the correct PMD center caps on the wheels. The car was shot in factory correct Fathom Blue. The engine bay was corrected with a radiator shroud and correct top plate with the hole for the radiator cap. Engine was plumbed and wired. Everything was detailed inside and out with Bare Metal Foil. There are more pictures below. |
