bbowser Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 Finished this one up today. Not real happy with the fit of the front and rear bumpers but it does have mirrors! AMT Round 2 re-issue, went together pretty well (except for the aforementioned bumpers). Comments welcome, thanks for looking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sixties Sam Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Nice!! the 61-63's are my favorite Birds! The tan top looks good with the red. Good looking interior, too. I wouldn't worry about the bumpers. Sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZTony8 Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 (edited) I wonder if there was an earlier thread about the windshield height and/or the shape of the raised top.They both look "off" to me-the windshield looks too tall(like the Trumpeter Nova) and the top looks too tall and too rounded. This looks to be a nicely done example of the kit.Congratulations. Edited October 28, 2013 by ZTony8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rv1963 Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Looks pretty good to me, I didn't notice the bumper issue till you said it, I really like the interior lots of foil work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lovefordgalaxie Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 Looks great, but you forgot to foil the side trim. I built this kit some time ago, and remember only one problem: The interior was a pain to make fit inside the body. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
