Thanks Chris! First time building the kit and it was so fun to do. I always loved the 69 GTO style but after messing with this, the 66 grew on me! GTO’s are legends.
Hey Chris! Thank you sir. Yea it was so much fun to build. It’s great when you don’t have to fight parts or reread the instructions 87 times thinking you lost your mind because something isn’t go on correctly lol
I looked at pretty much 4 Cars we hen Shopping for my First Car. A 65 Mustang almost 2X the money I had. It was super nice. The 66 GTO Convertible was $600 but it was thrashed. Bald tire bad breaks. Top Rotted. Muffkers blown out from Backfires it was a Mess. Pristine 66 Valliant Red 273 V8. Then I bought 69 Roadrunner in Q5. Seafom Turquoise. 383 4 speed $700. Ot was immaculate
The Roadrunner w as s so Fun it was 1978. I bought a 2nd 69 Roadrunner for my 2 nd car. The 65 Mustang that got away was heart breaking. It had a 68 hood was painted the New 76 T-Bird Emeralg Green metallic w gold Metalflake. Gold Fog accents on ot in the Recesses of hood and Sides Chrome Cragars. He'd been offered $4,500 & turned ot down 8 months prior a real Steal for $1,200. I could've driven it straight to California and sold it Quick for $7-8,000 easily
@@TI4438 I believe the kit gave both decal options of either white or black side panels. I like the white but worry about the gold bleeding thru. The kit also came with a extra set of correct GEETO Hurst rims along with the Rallys.
Thanks for the video. Did you use acrylic black to paint inside the body? Whichever you used, did you thin it and at what ratio? I hope to learn as much as I can.
Hey Mark thanks for watching! I used just black acrylic straight out of the bottle for the engine bay and roof interior. The seats dash and everything else was spray can.
I watched the whole, Amazing build. going to start my GTO , tonight . May i ask, what did you use on the dash , to make it look like wood grain. TYIA- KUTGW
Great review video!!! Awesome finish!!! Just subbed your channel...if you want a new release kit to tackle for a review would be the AMT 007 Mustang Mach 1. I just opened it last night... disaster lots of flash, fit issues, lots of work. TCWAGS 👍😎
I also used the pledge as the clear coat. You can put it all over the model and it won’t hurt anything, and it self levels. Only thing I didn’t put it on were the tires because I didn’t want them shiny.
@@michaelsmith1926 yes sir! If you do use the pledge, when you put it on remember, it will self level. Once you put it on now matter how heavy, don’t mess with it. You can put it all over the glass, etc. it may look like there’s a film covering it... just leave it be. Put a coat on and walk away. It will dry and come out crystal clear. Hope this helps.
Thanks for watching! I picked it up at Meijer. It’s Rust-oleums “Metallic” line. It had a picture of a lantern on the can. The reference number on the can is 313142
@@MyHobbyWorkShop Thanks much! I think I'll put that on my 1963 Corvette. That'll be quite a change from the usual silver, black, etc. I'd like to see the look on the face of a model contest judge.
@@markforster6457 I bet that would look sharp. I really fell in love with the color. If you do, post a video so I can see the result. I’d love to check it out!
I’ve never built the MPC kit but Revell did not disappoint on this. Very well made and easy to do. I didn’t come across any issues at all. Thanks for watching!
@@MyHobbyWorkShop I enjoy watching. Big Time! Did you paint the carbs gold only? I used to drybrush gold over chrome, to get that realistic color for carbs and brake master cylinders. It's been awhile.
@@markforster6457 I did the carbs and the break master cylinder as well but I sprayed them gold VS dry brush. I was going to strip the chrome off first, but just painted right over them. Figured there was no need to do that.
That really turned out great! Love the color!
I love the music dude, dropping a sub
Looks good I have a full size 66 GTO original factory color was a two tone paint gold with star light black top
I love me some GTO!!! Built this kit a few times....and they dont even come close to yours! Yours is a magnificent masterpiece!!!!

Hey, Chris here...... great job on that kit, love the color too...... well done!!!! I will say it’s a terrific kit to build too.

Amazing attention to detail and quality obtaining the authentic look is amazing.
Thanks Chris! Tried to make it as close as possible to the real deal. It was such a fun build to do.

Your Goat looks Great!!! Nice video!!!!

Really impressive build. They should use a photo of your completed build on the box. The one they do use doesn't do this kit justice.
Thank you so much for the kind words! The kit really is a fantastic kit. Very well detailed and goes together easily.
I love the video! It reminds me of hpiguys! Very cool! Thanks for sharing! 👍👍
Thanks!! I love his videos and definitely an inspiration! He’s the king of modeling videos.
Gas Tires Oil. Should pick yourself up some Tamiya primer brother. You will not be disappointed. Lays down nice, drys quick
I’ve heard great things about it. I’ll probably snag some for some future builds.
Very nice! I did this kit in ltalian red and white interior good kit!!

Pretty cool! I have the Royal GTO in my stash but I may pick this one up too.
I see it on the shelves at the local Hob Lob.
Definitely recommend it. Everything went to together great. Don’t forget to use the online coupon if you go to hobby lobby!
Royal GTO?
@@TI4438 Revell Royal Pontiac GEETO. Included the GEETO decals and the GEETO Tiger driver figure.

Did anyone ever release one of these GTOs as a convertible?
You used flat clear on the chrome parts? And that’s all you did.

Very nice results bro KUTGW 👍Keith
Thanks man. Very much appreciated!
Use a gel pen on the emblems if you make a mistake you can wipe it off just let it dry 24 hours.
I didn’t even think of that. That’s a great idea! Thanks John!
Did you use any clear coat on the body such as the Pledge you used on the interior?
I also used the pledge as the clear coat. You can put it all over the model and it won’t hurt anything, and it self levels. Only thing I didn’t put it on were the tires because I didn’t want them shiny.
