Hard_2_Handle_454 Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 Bought the kit with my tax refund. Been wanting one for my collection for awhile. Had to oreder the decals because the ones the kit came with fell apart. The kit itself wasn't bad but, there were some issues. The engine was highly detailed; even had an air grabber on the air cleaner. However, the engine bay was not detailed, nor was the underside of the car. I also hated the rod system for the wheels. Especially, since I only had one rod with the kit. Over all though it came out OK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

landman Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 Nice. A badly needed subject in 1/25. What scale is this one and who makes it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
62rebel Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 1/25th, and nobody makes it anymore. Johan made it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard_2_Handle_454 Posted April 11, 2015 Author Share Posted April 11, 2015 (edited) What scale is this one and who makes it? It's a 1/24 I think and I believe it was a Johan. Though there is an AMT kit too. Edited April 11, 2015 by Hard_2_Handle_454 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

disabled modeler Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Nice... ...we use to own a 74? AMX years ago. Never could find the Johan snap kit of it though or a promo,kit. I do think AMT made a kit of it once a long time ago? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
landman Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 I remember building one around 1974.So when the car was current. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlie8575 Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 I always replace plastic axle rods with brass tube or rod. I learned too many times what happens when you don't. Nice job on this. To answer a couple of questions, there was a full-detail and snap second-generation Javelin offered. Neither are real common, although snaps are moreso, and not real expensive.

Charlie Larkin Id like to find the Johan snap kit Javlen or AMX kit....never could find one in decent shape reasonable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
