No, no problems at all, I just used a bit of CA.

Try it, you'll like it!

Well, I haven't had a camera for a few weeks now and so it's all finished except for some chrome trim and some small touch-ups. I had to take the pics quick, so, they kinda stink.



She's pretty, eh?

I have to give Kudos to Best Resin.com, I ordered by snail mail with a printed out order form and a check. The mail took a while, but, when I received the package I found that they had DOUBLED my order while not charging me a penny more.
Good guys!
Anyway, Best Resin cast the manifold and carbs. I added a little bit here and there and VOiI:A!



So now it's just touching up paint and adding all the chrome trim.

Finito!
Gracias, gracias!

That looks pretty sweet Murphy. Very nice engine details.

Gracias, man! I need to do that Chrome Day soon so my cars have the appropriate trim packages.

Ah the AMT '72 GTO...........my god the horror.

It was my first attempt at an auto kit....bad place to start. I never managed to finish it, gave up about halfway through. A shame too, next to the '79 Camaro (which I have a Revell kit of, waiting to start), the '72 GTO is my favorite car.
Somebody should really release a good model of one.
