    Here are some photos of a Ertl GSX that I modified to look like my GS. Cut off the roof, rear spoiler, and tack. Then repainted correct 71 Buick blue with pearl white interior.

    Jeff...that ROCKS!

    I also have a convertible but don't have the talent or the patience to work that magic. Looks great! :TU:

    The boot is plastic and was from a model car kit, but I do not know which one.

    I would like to commission someone to build models of my 2 70 GS Stage 1's. One is a diplomat blue Stage 2 and the other a Titian Red Stage 1.

    Anyone on the board do this type of thing for hire???????
