A Straight Side shot might do better In all 3 above, it looks like the rear wheels are too far forward, and too narrow a track for the body. I have thought about stretching the AMT 68/9 chassis to fit the Jo-Han Fury 4dr sedan body not cutting molded on detail off.

I see the Custom Headlight Lenses It is hard to tell, bu those red lenses look to be Custom parts too. Didn't original Promos have the 2 piece tail lights like the original kits?? -
Did you remove any Chrome trim?? If this was suppose to be a Pace car, It should have had a chrome stripe that ran from Windshield frame to Boot cover, Down, Accross, then back up Yellow car with that area above the chrome black. I would love to find one I have the decal sheet already.

I have tried to restore it, but a couple posts are missing I am looking for a replacement body And before anyone says it is available in resin.

I believe they are a kit to themselves! Sure look like it! Besides, How many 1/6 scale car kits are there?? And it looks like there is ONLY One wheel per kit. You want to buy 4 separate kits to place the On a car?? -

TREK, Star Wars Battlestar Galactica (Monogram) ships, I have built a Queen Mary, and a few Military Ships My fave is the OLD Aurora USS Enterprise CVN-65 3 Ft long Wish I had gotten the motorizing kit! I know Monogram re-issued this, but mine has the Landing strip Pre-painted!! I do have a few other Military, Tanks, Jeeps, etc. I stay away from larger scales now I have a growing assortment of Leetown/Alloy Forms, Iver's Engineering, & NJ International 1/87 scale Trucks Mostly Fire Trucks!!! A few Jordan Highway Miniatures I have built one of those Monogram 187 "Big Boy" locomotives It is an Easy SnapTite kit I have the 4-6-2 Hudson in 3 Different Liveries. One Chrome Plated from the Museum Show piece collection My Big Boy is a Phantom "Chessie System" Articulated. Though Chessie Did have Large Articulated Locomotives, The Big Boy was a Union Pacific ONLY Piece!!! I have the Gundam's I built, an Entex "Mazda Wankle Rotary Engine and a Rev boxed Visible V8. Mine still had the battery box, lights, & motor I have several Estes, & Centuri Flying Rockets, And lately, I have started building and collecting PAPER Models Many of those FREE Downloads!! Can't Beat FREE!!!! -

Wish my 72 was more complete!! Interior is In the 73, as is the rear bumper! Hood is destroyed!! (Yea I glued the scoop on it and cut out underneath for the twin-turbo!) Grill was lost in 73 or so!!71 & 72 are almost Identical! 71 was molded in red, 72 in blue and body got a metallic clear-coat. It was called out as "Pre-painted Metallic Blue Body" on the box!! And, Yes, I would Love to finish the restoration on her!!! -

Well, I have 4 different Gundam's and the 3 Gigantic's kits Harry shows in an earlier post. I built 2 of the Original 4 back when first issued Mantis & Scorpion. The only one I have never had and Fourth of the series is the Wasp One thing I like about the Gundam's is that One Sprue of parts can be 5 different colors!!! Including Clear tint! And I did like the Movability of the built Robot. I need to take pic's of these some day!! I also have a Yardsale find of the Visible Woman in a revell box
