Hi guys, so here is my latest, a 73 Javelin from Johan, the Snap kit model. It's kind of simple build, I just pick up the wheels from the AMT Gremlin kit, the mirror are from the AMT Challenger . The gold stripe is from a Fred Cady decals. This kit was a glue bomb when I got it, so I first have to restore it first, put some BMF on the chrome 'cause the quality of the Johan chrome is not that nice, especially when the base styrene is green..... The color is From the AMC color chart, it's called " Fresh Plum Metallic ", I use 2 spray can to have this result which is as close as possible from the reality, first some red paint, then some plum metallic, without waiting the red to dry. Well, so here are the pics, enjoy :

Very good job !!!!!

Very nice build, the kit only includes the Body ????

Thanks again for your comments, I was "out" for a few days so couldn't answer here. Joe Handley, the L6 comes from an AMT Pacer wagon kit

Thanks for all these kind comments, I'll be out "of town" for a few days so I couldn't check the forum, but watch out for another AMC 70ies production in the near future

Thanks everyone for all these kind comments, yes those stripe decals come with the kit, that is the only choice you've got with the 75 model on the kit

Some more pics I forgot to say taht the engine comes from an AMC Pacer from AMT

Be prepared for ( some say ) the worst US designed car... Personnaly, I like it, it's a very funny car and it sold quite well so seems that it wasn't a so bad idea in his time. So starting with the last AMT reissue, box stock except for the engine which I change for a 232ci 6 in line, I also change the wheels for some mag 500 ( I saved those wonderful kit wheels for an AMX....). I enlarge the chassis to be close to the body, I cut the front bumper and add some round styrene to duplicate the security system. The interior receive some flocking and I add the seat belt; Hope you'll like it

Very nice engine details, and vey nice treatment on this Dart !!!!!

Thanks for your comments, unfortunatly no pics of the interior, I wasn't that happy about what I've done for the Denim upholstery

Very nice !!!!

Thanks, I agree with you realgone, I never pay attention to it first, but seeing pictures of the Denim edition makes me want building one, and so chasing one on Ebay, well, you don't see that truck very often !!!!

Honestly I don't know, this the way Revell design it, I haven't check on 1/1 reference to see if it was accurate Thanks for your comments
