This is the third of five obscure Aoshima kits my son gave me. The Toyota Century debuted in 1967 and reigned as one of the finest cars for the domestic Japanese market. This is the G40 version that appeared in 1982. Painted with Testors Inca Gold and lowered. Not a fan of the kits adjustable suspension with screws and springs. Unfortunately I was unable to get the ride height level. Thanks for looking and comments welcome.

Great looking build! I have this in my stash getting closer to build time.

Great looking build! I have to second that, all my cars, trucks, tanks and WWII planes that I guess just unknowingly threw away. ☹️

I will totally agree. I was working on a Aoshima kit tonight and the gate attachment was at the bottom of the rim. I was shocked and wondered the same thing!

I had my son clear some stuff out of our attic that he had put up there some twenty or so years ago. Found and gave me both these kits, a 1/12 scale 57 Chevy and the 1/24 F150. He has no memory of buying them. JACKPOT!!!

Thank you all for the kind comments!

Looks great, love these Thunderbolts!

This is my take on the Mooneyes dragster in Tamiya TS97 Pearl Yellow. All chrome parts were dechromed except for the wheels. I kind of struggled on this kit but I think it turned out ok. Thanks for looking and any comments welcomed.

Extremely nice build, great job on the interior!

Glad you have found the forum Ken, welcome aboard!

Stumbled upon this show Thursday evening. Trucks were arriving for the weekend show so I can imagine many more will be arriving. They’re going to need a bigger parking lot.

Looks great David, like your choice of color.

Awesome build! I would love for someone to re-release a Javelin kit.

Very nice looking Cobra!

Thanks Mario and Luke!

This is my second build of the five Aoshima kits one of my sons gave me, the first being a London Black Cab. Although curbside they all are very nice kits. Paint is Tamiya TS93 Pure Blue with the TS13 topcoat. Thanks for looking and all comments welcome.

Well done! I've built them all and loved every one!

Man that is a beauty! Great color choice.

Great looking build!

Thank you all!

This one fun and easy slump buster. Although something maybe could have been painted I never wet a brush except to add a wash to the panel lines. The factory finish was quite impressive, except where they painted over the mold lines. Even though this is by far me least favorite body style I’ll happily add it to my Camaro collection. Sure wish there was more than one color available. Thanks for looking.

Awesome build! The kit is one of the better ones from AMT for sure.

Very fine looking Bronco!

Now that's cool and super original!

Turned out great! Would love to pick up one of these kits.
