Just to be clear, I only posted the pix, don't own those models. I have an unbuilt Monogram '64 GTO kit purchased in the '90s which I think was supposed to have been a reissue of a kit from '64?
I also have the mailer from "Scale Dreams" of Beverly Hills from around the late '70s. I remember my dad sent it to me, not sure where he found it. There were 6 different very detailed 1:25 scale models offered at $150 each. They were supposedly only going to sell 250 numbered copies of each.
One of them was a '64 GTO convertible, choice of 7 different original colors (Pinehurst Green was not one of them) and you could specify 6 interior colors,
There were 6 separate 1/2 page card stock showing a B&W photo of each model and describing them. The GTO card mentions the AMT "pillarless coupe" kit that came out in "mid-'64" and the "kits are still around" so they went with the convertible as the "best looker".
$150 was too rich for me back then so didn't order, I wonder if they exist today?
