You guys want a accurate replica? Ask revell to make it 14 or so feet longer, about 3,000 pounds heavier, and make it out of real metal. And while you at it, ask for a real working motor feature. As for me I like it just the way it is.
Panel lines look a little too dark but that dint bother me. My problem with this car is the washer bottle looks like it is made of glass. They were actually white plastic and once aged begin to yellow. Eventually you cannot even tell if there is washer fluid inside unless you open the cap. Almost everyone leaves it in clear plastic or paints it transparent blue. Painting it a ivory color or very light beige with blue cap would make it much more realistic. But aside from that..its wonderful
Everyone has different tastes. Might be the subject matter. I dont even open any 69 camaro, 57 chevy,32 ford or 50 mercetc etc.. threads just because its seems all the same to me now. But thats just me. I probably missing some good stuff. But what gets my attention is stuff like the amc matador or any obscure stuff. Or a replication of a strange color combo. A mustang don't need to be grabber blue to knock your socks off. Try champagne gold or medium lime.
If I remember correctly..it takes abit of work to get the interior to sit right. I insist that the tops of the tops if the door panels are even. I can't remember what caused it to not sit right. I had to file down the edge of the dashboard and the top of the firewall to make it fit I think. The back window trim is halfass and the side drip molding just ends at the back when it should curve around the back of the quarter glass. But to your question..the newer amt stuff is good. I built the monte carlo and olds cutlass and they are awesome. Working on the duster a lil bit here and there and other than a few minor things..looks pretty good. Always when building a kit with seperate door panels...glue them together first thing. With small drops of super glue and put it in the body to see how it fits.

@Ron Hamiltin. Yes I agree. I bought that kit at a flea market. The body shell was missing but everything else was there. The chassis part looks good. Everything looks good. Would like to build one some day. And I cant afford resin. Dint even know there was a resin chevelle.
In my opinion, the original lace type wheel would lood best. But if those wheels are what you whant, then yes..painted center would look best. Its just me but big chrome wheels on cars with no chrome whatever just doesn't look right.
I feel a lump in my thoat for about the last two months so I figured it was time to give up cigaraettes. Also, my head just feels wrong in the mornings. I am now on day 10. Getting so hard. They told me the first few days were the hardest but I thought were actually the easiest. For me, day six and on were beginning to get tough. Never knew how dangerous this product is until you try to stop.
