Nice work! What did you use for the louvered vents? I don't recall those being a part of the kit, at least they weren't in the one I built. David G.

That's a good, clean and solid looking build, well done. David G.

Nicely Done! David G.

Thanks for your vote of confidence Carl. I don't know how many times it's been reissued. I would guess around three or four times with the most recent being the 2002 issue which I'm currently building. It's been issued at least once as a glow-in-the-dark model. I've seen a couple of those built up that turned out surprisingly well. Have you built one yet? If so, I'd be interested in seeing how it turned out. David G.

Hello Everybody! This is the Mummy Machine by AMT-ERTL. And MPC at least according to the logo cast on the bottom of the body tub. I first encountered this kit back during its original release period around 1975. So yeah, this is another nostalgia build in which I try to recapture my youth. I don't believe that I ever completed building it as I can remember having the mummy mead and other various bits around for years afterward. Believe it or not, this model kit is based on an actual show car created by Jack Kampney in the early Seventies. The molds for this kit are truly showing their age with prominent ejector pin marks and other artifacts and flaws. Serious clean-up required. That's all for now. As always, please feel free to post a comment and thanks for taking the time to stop and look. David G.

I wish you good luck getting the paint details sorted. It's a drag to have such a thing happen so close to completion. David G.

Nice wrap-up! Such a sexy body design, the paint and details you've added have certainly done it justice. David G.

I'm glad to see this one back on the active list again. Excellent progress on the base! It'll look great when it all comes together. David G.

That looks like a good color combination, love the tail lights too. David G.

Nice work on the hinges! It's great to see this build back in play. David G.

Impressive pull-knobs and handles, even a foot switch for the dimmer! David G.

An absolutely gorgeous build and it's been a joy to watch you pull it all together. This is what model building is all about. Thanks for taking the time to document it all and share it with the rest of us. David G.

Everything is smooth and shiny, looks like a great shoot! David G.

Awesome work on this! Everything looks fantastic. David G.

Nice wheels, the stance looks good too. David G.

Smoooooth an' deadly! David G.

Wow, that's just gorgeous! The paint, striping and other details just come together so well. David G.

Excellent idea to use the wire as a trim piece. David G.

Great looking paint and engine Bob! David G.

Nice work on those Adam! I thought about cutting the top on my Tumbler like you did on yours. I put so much work into the interior and it will never be seen. David G.

Sweet looking dash detail! David G.

Thanks Kurt, but I've made a few of my own over the years. Maybe that's why my eye was drawn to the one on yours. Kurt, everything you've done with this build goes way above and beyond anything that the kit designers could have ever imagined. To me, it certainly looks like it's been worth the effort. But in the end, if you're pleased with it, then it's worth the effort. David G. David G.

Nice color. It looks like it's made of bronze. David G.

Thanks Bill, I appreciate your compliment. David G.
