1968 Pontiac GTO JUDGE

The box. 26 years old.

Engine coming along.

Not much to put together on the chassis.

Nice looking body, hood gap could be better though.

Body in primer. Took some work to get the grill clip looking decent.

Exhaust and rear suspension.

Interior tub.

Battery, only the top is in the kit.

Wheel and tire package. Took some hot water to get the tires on the rims.

Wiper motor and wire part.

Master cylinder. I got carried away.

Engine and trans in color.

Did some detailing on the engine, not much.

Interior together and detailed as much as I'm going to.

The wheels on this kit snap on very loose and flop all over. Super glue and steel blocks to set them straight.

I'm trying my hand at polishing the paint. This is a second coat of paint after 600 grit. I'll be doing 12,000 grit on the clear.

Engine installed and interior tub fitted. Now to get the shiny paint job complete.

Looks good to me.

Trying my hand at tinting.

26 year old decals held together! I'm very happy about that.

Quick test fit the other day

Calling it

Looks pretty sharp

The best paint job I've ever done.

First time sanding and buffing paint.

Photo of instructions showing side markers/ signal lights. They are in the kit.

Pretty cool! Didn't expect, that you'll use the white stripes. That pops out.
I'm a little irritated about the sidemarkers at the front fenders. I think they are not in the kit included. What's behind that?

All right. It didn't let me off so I did a little research. I found an otion for "cornering lamps" (651). They are super rare I think because I only found 2 GTO in a quick search. Was this your intention?

Amazing!!!

The signal lights are in the kit. Not sure why you'd be irritated...

I never saw them so far. I can't remember that they are in the box at all.
