I am going to copy a friends 1:1. I searched on this topic and it seems the only kit is the AMT that is out of production. Is there a version of the kit that is better? Different? More accurate? More part options? Thanks in advance. Dave

Well here I have a all factory looking 72 chevelle.

Well after creeping around here for a few months I have gotten enough inspiration to start building. The Chevelle will be a curbside build and the 454 for the Chevelle kit is going into the monte carlo in the background. 70 chevelle has been sanded and preped for primer. rims, front and rear grills have been detailed. wheels still need to be weathered. The Monte Carlo is the main reason for my modeling procrastination. Heres what happened: I painted it black, and although it turned out pretty good I wasn't happy with it. I tried polishing it, using future ect. Long story short I ended up messing up the paint and I have been avoiding it. I have made all sorts of goodies for it, scratch build stuff cowl hood, 454, drag lites, plug and wires, headers, ect, but I haven't been able to bring myself back to the bench due to the paint let down. Heres where it lays sitting. 86 Monte Carlo 454 Stripped of paint body work complete My plan is to finish sanding the monte carlo before the weekend and have them both in primer after the weekend. sorry for the big picture and thanks for reading my long winded rant Cheers, M!k3

Hey. I built this a few years ago when the kit was widely available and forgot about it until I visited my old Geocities website. I remember the paint & clear were both from Duplicolor, brakes were XSTuning items, wheels, mufflers, and tires are Fujimi. I believe I got the rally stripes from Marc Nellis. Thanks for lookin'.

First build. No skill, no detail or nothin. what do y'all think?
