Forgot to say its a Johnny Lightning one of the Pontiac GTO (38459), Shame its only left hand drive, this one came with small die-cast car about the size of a Matchbox car. Years ago someone did resin parts to turn it into a Monaro. My mate Ken built one up but put a lot of work into the resin to get them to fit. Think TPB did a rear wing and bonnet for this one too.
The Instructions are not much help as they are very small also there is a part that sits on top of the left side inner front guard that you have to watch it can stop the bonnet from sitting, you need to file a bit off the bottom of it.
It comes with two sets of rims too.

Ya slowlylearning I have done one in Black, This one will be a pale colour with black inside, still thinking on the colour. Oh once you snap parts in place you have trouble removing them you could brake the part so you have to be very carefull.
Will let you know the outside colour once I make up my mind :lol:

Oh just noticed that this has AMT/ERTL brand on it too. There were two kits the Johnny Lightning one and the AMT/ERTL one, think there was a prepainted one too.
