Thanks guys! I don't know why, but I just don't feel like building! I ordered another model on-line today and I should have it soon, but this is a TV/Movie Car build and I want this one! A Porsche Targa like the one on TV's Will Trent and I have the paint for this. So now I have to clearcoat the '66 GTO or I will have two projects going nowhere!

I have been away for the last 2 1/2 months undergoing knee surgery and suffering some type of modelers burnout. I have been building constantly since I retired some 6 1/2 years ago and I got up to 5 projects on the bench at one time. Enough is enough! I've got to relieve some of this pressure off of myself. Yesterday afternoon, I ordered a Revell Porsche 911 Targa to build the car from TV's Will Trent. That seems to have restarted my resurgence into the modeling world and I decided to clearcoat my '66 GTO that has been sitting in the paintbooth since the end of June. I'll let this set for a couple of days to dry and harden. Have a look!    More GTO to come... |

Looking forward to more. I have the new AMT '65 hardtop kit to build a replica of the real one Mrs. Bucky had back in '65. (That was long before I met her, dang it!)

So, Mrs. Bucky had one long before she met you. Probably was a good thing, yes?

Most likely. It might not have fared too well if I had gotten a hold of it! Hers was a four speed.

After a month and a half, I decided to add another coat of clear to the '66 GTO.    More GTO to come... |
