Never before in the history of KZbin have so many people awaited the arrival of a piece of plastic from the post office! Seriously though, I agree it actually looks great without the rear bumper. Those decals are AMAZING and like always you have done an incredible job! Thanks Jon for sending these cars!

Yeah don't hype it up , they don't have to much in their and charge quite a bit... what I miss is the outlet store , years ago they had cool diecast cars along with model kits , but now all baby stuff and a few Tractors if your into that..

I've always pronounced it as ER-TLE as in Turtle. As I've mentioned before 1:18 scale is easy to customize compared to 1:64. These 3 you've done are great, I hope you do more 1:18 in the future. Great Job! I would have painted the engine "Pontiac Blue", I not sure what color the Trans-Am engines were, all the early GTO's 389's & up were blue. I'm looking forward to the GTO John is sending you. I had a 1964 and a 1966, The 64 was a Le-Mans with the GTO option in Silver, the 66 was a 4 bbl version, in Burgendy. Regards Tom USA

You really pimped this one... *Pimp Blubs* I'm sure you thought of this, but the idea crept in my blubby head that the bumper could have been negated with some well placed and shaped body putty.
