Here’s the International Scout II by AMT that I finally finished. This one is from the older ERTL-era issue. It’s painted in Tamiya TS-8 Italian Red with various Krylon sprays for the interior. For whatever reason, I struggled big time with the paint finish on this build - I ended up stripping it twice, I cracked the body in two places, and then the final clear coat bubbled at the front driver’s side fender. I decided to let it go and finish it since I was getting burnt out on it. That fender looks worse in person but the rest of the paint turned out great! The kit itself is pretty simple but it fits together great and there are no warping issues. The mirrors that came with the kit were misshaped blobs, so I used a set from a Mobius Ford.

I saw a Scout II with the roof off and though I should try that with the old AMT/ERTL kit, so I dug it out. Well it's pretty simplified, but I can change all that! The interior and frame are all one, that's not good. The front and rear suspension, axle, driveshafts, each one part, again, that won't do! So I carefully cut everything apart, now I have what appears to be a more detailed kit to work with.
