Don't understand the haters, but I guess that's the nature of fakebook. To me this is like a dream come true... Craftsman style kits freshly tooled with new wheels and hubcaps, with old problems (like the headlights) fixed. I'll be getting at least one of these and a '68...

...as well! Actually I'm making a point of buying all the new R2 kits with resurrected tooling. Not long ago I had no hope of getting any of these because I won't pay collector pricing for an old kit... they've become too pricy for the average builder IMHO.

To Round2: keep 'em coming!! This has made the hobby more interesting than ever!

  - I'm all for them releasing kits like this, especially if it can keep the cost in reason. I'm mostly building curbsides these days anyway. *NM*
- Read. The. Post. The new 1965 GTO will have the proper roof molded in place, just like the '65 promo
- Thanks for sharing the news, Bruce. I'll be using the Steelies w/ Dog Dish caps to build a clone of the Black 68/69 that Scott Liggett built.
- Those steel wheels and poverty caps will fit nicely on a 65 2+2. *NM*
