Is that a Johan Model? I got one off ebay awhile ago and it was yellow but had the body side moldings. I sanded the plastic down and removed them as my car was but is now molding delete and painted it the color my car will be,but it's packed up in a box some where from the move.
I haven't seen a laser stripe car,that is kewl. Kinda glad mine wasn't like that as I would have a hard time wanting to ruin a nice model and paint it like my car but they one I got was all molded in yellow so I really didn't mind doing it to that one but yours looks fantastic with the laser stripe and wheel opening moldings . BTW yall have too many of our nice Classic car's over there,no wonder why these cars are getting rare,other counties are stealing them from us,LOL |

Nope,it is a NEO model car. Got it from ebay and it is very nice. Cool that you are making a copy of your car! Yes,i think it is the old car that neenjah had,he sold it to bay a srt10 i think. Many nice classic cars here,we love them too you know lol BTW I looking forward to you get started again on your GTS,think it will be a cool car! Kim Edited by 72 Torino - 01-July-2012 at 4:12AM |

well right now it's on hold for 2 reason's
one don't have a garage yet.Construction starts in a week or so,clearing the tree's and digging the basement addition and doing the foundation and block work for a 50X30 garage with 12ft ceilings for a twin post lift later. it's my brothers house where I live now and we are building it ourselves. the other reason is I'm currently unemployed and can't afford to do much if I did have a garage but could tear it apart for a frame off but need the garage before I do that.

never heard of that model kit,must be rare as I never seen a laser stripe car.
Wish some of the model companies like AMT or Monogram would make one now of the 72 GTS as I would buy a bunch and build one in every color that they were available in

On Saturday I went for a drive along with Arendal American car club to a dragrace event at a place called Fyresdal. 30 years since the last dragrace was held there on the old air stripe. Was a fun weekend.
Here we are all together and ready to start the trip to Fyresdal. On the road. A little stop along the way to stretch their legs and enjoy the view. |

Fantastic pictures. It is incredible how you guys band together and enjoy thes cars as they should be. Not a single worry about dirt, puddles, and a stone peck. Just drive them and enjoy them. AWESOME, man.

Cool pictures! Your car looks great (I´ve probably said it before). Looking a ´72 sportsfoof beside all those GM and Mopar muscle car icons, it has absolutely nothing to be shame about what it comes to looks, a beauty!!

Man if my 73 didn't have the laser stripe it could be a sister car to yours! Very nice! I wish there was a group of cars to go driving with around here like that. Must be nice!
