Fantastic build. Thank you for showing how you corrected the much-discussed height of the windshield. I have a coupe lying around that will get the same treatment one day.

Nice build! Very creative kit bashing, thanks for sharing your knowledge.

Time well spent, working away requires discipline. Model building helps, I have even brought kits, parts with me to overnight conferences.

Perfect stance, I really like the front height.

It looks mean.

Super clean, this must be the finest AMT 39-40 Ford ever, sharp.

There is a build somewhere online featuring a 1937 Chevrolet coupe with a chopped roof from AMT's 3 window 1936 Ford. I seem to recall that it was jet-powered, but regardless of the propulsion, the Ford roof was a perfect fit.

My tip is to hold a piece of paper inside the body and draw the outline of the opening, cut it out, and place it on the iPhone screen. You should get an idea of whether the proportions are correct. Pictures are difficult; few are accurate representations, and many product images are manipulated.

Nice build. It's cool to build something based on a nearly 60-year-old magazine; it shows the significance of the hobby.

Hello Tim Yes, that's exactly what I meant, but you put it better. Do you know if there is a list, newspaper article, etc. about these kits as you wrote ”mid-to-late 1990s AMT-Ertl kits designed and engineered by John Mueller, Dave Carlock, and the team there” ? AMT has had its ups and downs, but during this period they seem to have made an extra effort.

Very nicely built, you have taken advantage of this kit's fantastic design and overcome some well-known difficulties (?). This kit and a few contemporaries are truly top-notch, which is easy to overlook.

Undoubtedly one of the absolute nicest cars made. A bit of a bummer to leave the party before the fun started, the Boxster and Cayman have gone out of production and are to be replaced by two electric models, the manual Boxster and Cayman are rising in price after decades of the epithet as ladies hairdresser cars. All Boxster and Cayman were assembled in Finland(even US sold ??) and the quality of all their cars is impeccable.

It turned out great, very inspiring.

See my q a few days ago regarding AMT 77 + MPC 79 Chevrolet Nova kitbash. I think think think another Nova like Revell's 69 and sub frame and front end from a Camaro is a way to build a detailed Nova out of MPC's 79 Nova.
