mpc 1967 Pontiac Firebird from JAPAN

My New project is mpc 1967 Pontiac Firebird.
I bought it on ebay about $20. Because it was Junker Built. Some parts were gone. It Had Bad chrome.
At first I disassembled and stripped old paint. Luckily Body has no Damage. I carefully primed and scribe door-line by backside of design-knife.
Front and rear Bumper from modelhaus. For realistic looks, I modified molded headlight to amt 1990s issue Ford Fairlane’s lense and reflecter.
I changed the tires to MODELHAUS one. Wheels were made from mpc 1969 Firebird wheel disc and mpc 1969 Pontiac Grand Prix rim. I rise front and rear suspension for sitting right stance. I narrowed front and rear track.
