Ive modified a couple of the new 66 Galaxies .. Wheel swaps , de-tampoed one , repainted one gold to match a 66 7-Litre I used to own , & the 3rd one I tried to remove only the graphics to have a BWF car - but that one didnt turn out as good as I hoped .. Yellow is a poor covering color, & was a bit difficult to work with ..

Now that's how I would've released these cars, nicely done!
The plain black one is perfect, and I love your gold paint job with the JL wheels.
I'd like to see that gold one with thin white walls on it, but it's neat like that too.
Remember the hub caps and skinny tires that came on JLs red '65 Mustang Fastback and the white '65 Imala cnvt. from 2 years ago? I bet those might look good also.
Thanks for showing us!

Lummox , The wheels on the gold Galaxie are from the Greenlight Flame series GTO . Reg whitewalls would be better , but those new size wheels dont interchange tires with other Greenlights or JL's ..
Putting JL wheels on a Greenlight would be a project too , since they are of completly different design in how they are attached ..
Hopefully Greenlight makes some more variety of tires for those rims .
