...post your AMT AWB/Funnies from the series!
I have always loved the '64 to '67 period in drag racing when S/S and A/FX cars were evolving in to 'glass bodied floppers. Consequently, my favorite 'shelf' models of all time are contained in this series from AMT, many of which are available for us to build again without costing us an arm and a leg. When I first got back in to modeling these kits were fetching three figures, but thanks to first the Model King and now Round Two, the kits became available to builders again and I am pleasantly surprised to see that the "Chezoom" Corvair has been added to the list. One of my biggest model-related regrets ever was not paying $35 for a very restorable example of the "Time Machine" Chevelle sometime in the early 90's. I understand that a reissue of that car is unlikely due to the body being converted to a dirt track racer, but I'm hoping the Olds roadster in the series might resurface at some point.
Detail and accuracy? Not so much, but these funky little kits are dead simple and, aside from figuring out how to mount the body on the chassis, fun to build. I know most of you have built at least one of these and I would love to see them!
Here's mine:
