Looking at the straight line reflections of the flourescent lights shows how well the preparation has been done.

They both look fabulous. I can't help thinking you guys need a blue one now to recreate some famous scenes from The Italian Job.

Looking good, the gold stripes look the business.
Where did you get the boot handle/lock from?
Cheers

Love what you have done with the kit, do you know any thing about Hanomag Henchels? (Mercedes 206D).

Thanks, Just found 1 on ebay for 18GBP, I´m going to order 1 and have a look at maybe replacing the door handles with them as well as the boot as per the original GTO, this may be scraped after a few hours of my swearing at it and it will end up on the boot!

I think Irfan just want only the big white dots on the start numbers.
Let's see what comes up. His red GT500 has white stripes, ![Rockon](images/smilies/rockon.gif) his dark blue 427er Cobra has white stripes ![Rockon](images/smilies/rockon.gif) ...... want to see.
Today I went a little long with my MX. That makes me the moment more fun than my orange supercharged Mustang. The best ever only 1/2 of gas ![biggrin](images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
