AMT 1959 Cadillac Ambulance First Look

Has anyone seen if these lines were removed? -
Excited to get that police car, and the box art makes that disco nova look pretty sweet Shouldn't this be a trunk rack?

AMT M&H Racemaster Dragster Slicks & Parts Pack Tires
Hondamatic replied to Gregg's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
Round2 should offer a 10 pack of those Denmans, I would be a buyer ? -
Idea/rant For many years now, Steve Magnante has wanted Slixx to offer decals to replicate his Wilshire Shaker. With all the first gen nova kits out now, and him being in recovery from brain surgery, I think now would be a good a time as any. Maybe offer some proceeds to help his medical bills? I would buy a few sets Just a thought https://youtu.be/jkD15gnbbPk?si=CPmB3fJ_vvlS6_zD

I was debating whether chopped or stock height looked better, but I didn't find many built up photos and I was probably feeling lazy

Yes, they're the wheels that come with it. I extended the frame rails to a point and made a tube go across and it will mate to small tubes attached to the body sides similar to how the awb comet body is mounted

I think I found instructions on drastic plastics and those pieces were pretty janky looking anyways, it wasn't too hard to make my own better versions. Probably the hardest part of the conversion is cutting out all the front inner fenderwells to get it to sit like that

I'm no master builder but I cobbled my own Streaker with the new 64 Olds kit and a Rat Packer chassis, and my own Mr Speed with the metal tin 53 Stude and a Piranha.. I couldn't find any decals at the time but I think they satisfied my craving for now

Last year I made my own from the new 64 Cutlass and a Rat Packer, not quite right but it'll satisfy my hunger for now -
