Decided that I would tackle AMT's 65' Pontiac GTO next now that the Tumbler is done... I am doing this one in honor of a local spring festival in Spokane, Washington, The Lilac Fest... It's when all the lilacs are in full bloom throughout the area and there are lots of things in Lilac colors so this will be in what you see here... lol!!! Base coat is on, needs a nice shiny clear coat in few days... probably go with a black interior!!!

Then, it all went to white, black, silver, white, and more white!

Little old lady from Pasadena will have her ride officially started tonight at Fightnjoe's house for club meeting... John is laid up right now with some health issues and can't drive to open the hall and he lives up a really bad mountain road way up north across the river from me... no one likes to drive it in the winter...
