The Y-193 kit was one of my first kits. I still have the hood with the scoops glued on, and most of the decal sheet (it is cracked and pretty rough). Thanks for this write up!!

Obviously they could fix it if they wanted to. But they only want to if they can make money. Obviously they thought they’d sell a lot of 2016 Camaros - not sure that happened. And it’s pretty obvious they don’t think your Plymouth idea will make them enough money - and not to be rude but my guess is they have a better pulse on demand and costs than most of us do. And there is no way some personal dislike of a car will keep them from doing something to make them money. BTW their other new tools include the Batmobile, the COT NASCARs, a couple promo type kits, and maybe another one or two.

Wow! Fantastic!

Looks good!! Too bad Jeremy went nuts.

What is the first of the Nunu BMWs (the all-gray one with a wing)?

Nice! And back from when NASCAR was NASCAR!!

Wowser!!! Nice!!!

Really nice! I am a fan of those hard plastic AMT slicks. Wish I had a stash of them

The green glass in the Charger is supposed to be Coke-bottle green. Clever idea. I hope if anyone plans on actually building this issue that plain-ol' clear is included too. Do Coke collectors really buy anything with a coke sticker on it/included??

Here is my write up on the AMT Trojan Horse that may help with your Blue Max project and here is a very nice build with the CR Mustang II body

Google led me here http://www.resinrealm.net/Star/AardvarkModels/Aardvark.html Hopefully it is still active and not a "zombie" site.

Looks nice! Fire extinguisher decals are a nice touch.

I have abig stash and am trying to avoid adding to it. But it might be fun to build the 63 Chevy radical custom. I might top it off with some Coca Cola decals. (Just kidding about the decals).

Great bodywork and paint!

That came out nicely, esp the paint!

Nice work! Is that display base included with the kit?

Fantastic!

Personally I enjoy building these old AMT kits now and then. I think the subject matter is interesting and you end up with a cool build.

This looks really good. Great stance and glossy paint!! The modification to lower the rear ride height looks very good. Interestingly when I did my mockup for the Custom Body Dart the body sat a bit lower in the front. When I re-glued it all "for real" something changed and it sits a bit higher.

I started this back in January and it is finally done! The Revell Duster body has the greenhouse to far forward to replicate a 1974 Dart FC, but instead of moving the greenhouse back which would have required new decals, I moved the engine forward a bit so it would stick out of the windshield like the real car. I also modified the grill to look like a Dart, and used a Slixx grill decal. I opened up the front wheel wells, added wheel bumps from the Revellution funny car and removed the ridge down the center of the hood that Dusters have. The model has Comp Resins front wheels and rear slicks from the MPC Kalitta FC. I used kit decals, which were in good shape for being 45 years old!!!! The kit decals didn't have anything for the decklid, and fortunately Tamiya Bright Red was a good match for the kit decals. Those decals also did not have the white stripe for the roof, trunk, or hood, so I used decal film. Chuck Boerner is going to offer these decals with all the white striped included, so they'd be much easier to use. Happy to get this on the shelf!!

Looks really good!

That looks great! Nice build and amazing gloss on the paint - what clear did you use? I thought I knew who Paul Smith was, and here is an article from 10 years ago or so http://www.competitionplus.com/featured-stories/2666-paul-smith-–-standing-the-test-of-time His son John still is in the sport, and his daughter-in-law is Rhonda Hartman-Smith, who drove TF.

Just FWIW the AMT Gas Ronda funny car has a Logghe chassis. Is it just a long version of the short Vega, Pinto, etc.chassis?

While it is hopefully the almost stock Vega Wagon FC we are getting, the chassis for this kit was recently released in the Trojan Horse FC. So they have that chassis ready to go and would only need to get this body mold working.

I think it is cool too!!
