Love it. One of my favorite body styles and you did a great job on it.

Can't read either, but it looks like it comes with a Korean hottie.

I know it's not finished, but it looks really good in that side profile pic

Man, that is a good looking car

Awesome work! I considered this conversion when I built my 74 Charger, but went box stock instead.

I dont care for 55s or 56s. 57 was the best of that generation. But, I may still buy one.

Call me weird, but I loved those cars. Heck, I even liked the Luminas.

Awesome build, and awesome story to go with it.

Hobby Lobby, Michael's, and occasionally Ollie's are pretty much the only plastic model sources around here. No real hobby shops unless I drive to the nearest bigger city, which has a Hobbytown USA. It's also over a 2 hour round trip. I do visit a small shop about 2 hours south of me once per month. They carry kits that the big three do not, plus they dont mark up older kits to current pricing trends. I bought several sealed kits from the 90s and 00s for $10-11 each.

First time on the bench since hot weather arrived. Hard to paint with the humidity we've been having. Anyway, I found this kit for $10 at a small shop. Instead of building it as shown on the box, I'm going a different way. What if rednecks colonized the moon? Their buggies would be a lot more colorful than NASA's. I began by building a simple roll bar around the passenger compartment, then the rear bumper (with a 2" receiver hitch) The front is a parts box grill guard that will have a winch. Wheels are 1/20 Toyota 4wd pickup items. I haven't decided on paint. I'm leaning towards something bright and outlandish, but dirty and weathered sounds good, too.

I actually prefer the "monster of the week" episodes. I hate the overall story arc. I'd like it better if Dean used an AR15 or something. His "no holster, hammer down" 1911 carry makes me cringe.

Love it.

That's how I knew about it. Apparently, AMT likes to surprise us every now and again.

Nice build. True, you dont see many people build them in white. I had a 1:1. Mine was originally burgundy but someone repainted it purple. I had always loved the looks of these cars, so I bought one. Too bad it was built by GM. Leaky window seals and broken door handles quickly followed after I paid for it.

Good to know. I'll probably start mine once the humidity lowers around here and I can paint again.
