GTO question
So good to come back here and check on my old friends and fellow collectors still going strong. Missed you all.
Still love my diecasts and my few plastic models as well. Limited because of my living space size and money, but still happy to be alive and so far safe at age 69!
I have a question. Not sure if I imagined it or just have a faulty memory at this age, but didn't GMP or someone make an exclusive edition of the 69 or 70 Pontiac GTO in Orbit Orange with a tan interior? I know there is one with a black interior, but I remember one with a tan interior. I also know they made one in 1/18, but I thought they also issued one in 1/24. Could of been a dealer exclusive?
Can anyone here refresh my memory or just tell me I'm batpoop crazy! Ha ha ha.

PICS: Hey Patty, so good to see you posting, welcome back! You are remembering correctly, as GMP did indeed produce NINE different 1970 Pontiac GTO's. Here are Orbit Orange ones you are probably talking about.
Stay well and safe, and again welcome back!photo no longer available

Hi Patty, My two GMP Orbit Orange GTOs both have black interiors.
IT's nice hearing from you again and to know you are doing well. I was thinking about you the other day. I was moving some models and came across the white 67 Corvette convertible in 1/43 scale I bought from you many years ago. We miss you and hope that you will visit here more often.

Luv ya too, Lee!
I've got plenty of those posters in my files, and have shared some of them in the 1/18 Forum, since all those models in the posters were 1/18. None of us ever lose our love for diecast cars, no matter the scale, right?
You still mainly collecting 1/64?
