I don’t know if his blazer would’ve came from the factory with those colors. Hawkins police may have bought it and painted it their colors and put the graphics on it. I just picked this kit up yesterday and was thinking of painting it in Tamiya racing white which is sort of an off white and was going to do Tamiya Tan for the other color.

AMT Ford C-600 Stake Truck
Stt226 replied to Stt226's topic in Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
Thank you for the kind words Jeff… I always thought these trucks were cool looking but I love any old Cab over. Kit was a lot of fun and actually very little trouble in assembly ! -

Amt ford snow plow parts numbers
Stt226 replied to kenton44's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
I built this kit last year and as I recall there were no part numbers. You have to just use the not so great pictures in the instructions. I do recall someone saying on the old big rig kits the parts are numbered on the back of the actual kit box where they provide a black and white pictures of everything inside -

Thank you very much 😀 -
Painted the cab using MCW lacquers. For the flat bed I primed with Mr Surfacer Mahogany. I used different wood tone craft paints to do the stakes along with different brushes to try to achieve the wood look. The rest of the weathering is all done with craft paints and various layers. I really like how this one turned out.

AMT 1960 Apache Kustom Kruiser

Yes the steering wheel is horrible. I did use it though but you can easily substitute a different one. -
Stunning build Luke. That thing is out of this world. The patina looks so real and the detailing on the engine is amazing.

Nice work Mike. The Body color really pops with that blue interior!

Thank you! It was a fun kit. I believe the previous release of this kit that comes with the go Kart has all the stock parts! I wasn’t a big fan of the wheels on this version but the red decals make them pop in my opinion -
Beautiful Work Mark. That blue is stunning and every little detail really pops
