Oh boy, that Pontiac looks great as this 1/25 model. The 421 SD V-8 engine makes it more than a little old lady vehicle .....unless she she lives in Pasadena and also drives Dodges ! I have Ertl's excellent 1/18 version of this sleeper Pontiac.

Very nice Geoff. I still have an unbuilt model of this and one that was fully assembled by AMT as their Masterpiece series done in a light green. I need to find it.

Thank you Mike, Pete, Tony, John and Greg. As mentioned the body style really appeals. All these subtle variations away from the 'square', perfect balance between front and back. I really would have jumped on a mint diecast.
finally getting somewhere with paint masking, 2 tone seats came up well. Now I just have to master curving the blade to highlight window and windscreen trim.

Thank YOU Geoff, for all the cool work and pics you share with us!

Unless, one had a hearing disability, there is no way the 1:1 could come off as a sleeper.
Nice job with the 1:25.
