that looks fantastic John. My efforts with this model are stalled because the firewall wont fit. Did you have any problems?

@geoff-jowett Hello Geoff.  I did not, actually this kit went together a lot better than other kits I have built lately.  Everything seem to be so precise.

You rocked it John, how could you not love a yellow Torino. It's perfect for this car.💯👍 I have the CMW version in 1/24 in this color.😊

Is it a Cobra or a GT? As Geno said nothing better than a yellow Torino.  I have a 1/24 yellow Johnny Lightning.

@grockwood Steve it is a Cobra, but I do not use decals and build them they way I want.

@carsman1958 thanks John, I've just pulled it out again and the problem is the firewall is preventing the dash etc from fitting correctly.  Its close so I'll have another go

PS mine is yellow too. Really want to complete it as the body design is so close to one of my favourite early 70s Falcons, the XA GT.
