Geno Posted September 5, 2018 Posted September 5, 2018 (edited) It started out as this. The Welly '67 is a pretty nice model in it's own right. Here's what I done with mine. I fixed the headlight issue, added parts box wheels and tires, an insect pin for an antenna, BMF and some MCG photo-etch and a spoiler from a Camaro kit plus some added detailing. I'm happy with how it turned out. I still have some minor detailing to do like add the insulation pad on the underside of the hood etc, but it's basically done. Edited September 5, 2018 by Geno

Gramps46 Posted September 5, 2018 Posted September 5, 2018 Well done indeed. I have a silver one and a dark blue one. Did you change the air cleaner too?

Hi Gary, yes, it's from a scrap GMP GTO I have in the parts box. I also have the 455 photo-etch emblem on the spoiler as well. I just wanted to give the model a little attitude lol. It'll be going to the Toledo show with me. Edited September 5, 2018 by Geno
randyc Posted September 6, 2018 Posted September 6, 2018 My guy got his recently from an ebay seller. So I know they are out there. I didn't realize they had been around so long. Where can I get bulk head light lenses? Seems like I may need more in my stash. And Geno, yours is awesome. Those rear tires fix my issue of the openings looking too large. I had the 68 Revell builtup, so I have no need for this one as well. Wife & I have counted like 15 Firebirds in various scales, so not really adding any more intentionally. And I'm not really even a Firebird fan. Well I guess I am sorta.
Geno Posted September 6, 2018 Author Posted September 6, 2018 Thanks guys, I appreciate the kind words. Blessings, Geno.
