It looks like something from Heavy Metal magazine! David G.

The front two flares are integrated into the chin spoiler so each is unique. I believe that the remaining six could be cast from two masters, one left-handed and one right-handed. David G.

After looking at my options I agree with you. I'm sure to have enough of a challenge creating the spoilers and flares. David G.

Nice pair of American classics! David G.

Nicely Done! I never would have guessed that it was a snap kit. David G,

Knowing how AMC borrowed from the "Big Three", it may be based on the same block. David G.

Thanks Harpo. I used Tamiya flat black (XF-1) acrylic thinned with Windex applied with a brush. David G.

Hello everybody! I had the time and energy to get a bit more done on the Pacer. I got the engine completed this weekend. I decided to use the stock 258 6 cylinder as is. K-Mart oil filter included! At home in the chassis. As always, thanks for taking the time to look and please feeel free to commen, David G.

Hello again, time for another update. I got some painting done, sprayed the chassis in black, the interior in tan and selected a dark metallic green for the body. I also cut the AC vents, radio and gauges from the dash board. I'm using the mounting point that goes with the .50 cal that I've borrowed from the MPC WWII Army Jeep. This Pacer kit also has roll cage for the rally version- nice coincidence. I like the way this one is coming together. Nice profile. As always, thanks for looking and please feel free to comment.

Thanks Gary and Kerry- wait, you guys need to stop rhyming . OK, I got the junk-box axle epoxied to the chassis. I just slapped it over the one that is cast into the chassis plate. At this point I'm more interested in "shelf appeal" than detail. It took a bit of fiddling but I managed to get the rear axle lined up nicely. I also raised the front about two inches to offset the rake that developed and give the car a bit more of an off road stance. I'm not sure what I'll do about the engine. I'm still considering a curbside build. Or I may just build the 258 six-banger and slap it in there. That stance does make it look ready to pounce, though. As always, thanks for taking the time to look and please feel free to comment. David G.

While I'm collecting parts for my 77 AMC Hornet AMX, I decided that I wanted to have some fun with another AMC based project. I could make it into the car from the movie "Wayne's World"... Nah, let's give a .50 caliber machine gun and make it into a post apocalyptic supply recon vehicle. We'll need some chunky all-terrain tires and a beefy looking suspension. I found a suitable rear axle in the parts box. It's going to take a bit of effort to fit it in. I'm starting to like this. As always, thanks for taking the time to look and please feel free to comment. David G.

It's coming along nicely! David G.
