1969 Hurst Olds finished

[Samiches]

I bought this kit to bash for an upcoming 1970 Pontiac GTO build, but couldn't bring myself to do it. The car and kit just look like too much fun.

I added an ignition coil from my parts box.  I also made the foam piece that goes on top of the air cleaner, but need to make sure I didn't make it too tall before installing it permanently.

Here is the work that I've got done on the interior so far:

Thanks for looking!

Nice choice on building, rather than bashing that kit! I always thought the Olds stood out way more in scale, as well as full-size, than the Pontiac! Will be watching for progress.

The interior is finished and I am pretty happy with it. I don't think the steering wheel is correct, so I tried to at least make it look like it could belong on a '69 hurst olds.

Thanks for the comments and checking out this post.

That dash looks amazing... Great details you have here and there.. Keep up good work!

I got the chassis all finished painted.  I will probably get the steering and suspension along with the rear components done this week too.

Here is the chassis in succession:

Nice job on the chassis!

I finished up installing the suspension and other parts that go onto the chassis.  I added some springs to the rear suspension, battery cable, and air cleaner foam seal.  I wish there was the air inlet part that goes on top of the cleaner for the ram air style.

Dodge5522, I used embossing powder to simulate the carpeting.  Also, pretty good choices for a first car!

Very nice work.
