AMT 1966 buick wildcat Questions

What kind of issues (Problems) are common when building this kit.

[unclescott58]

The building part is just fine. The only real problem with the kit, and this goes back to the origin issue back in 1966, is the interior. The kit has the the 1965 interior and dash, rather than the correct '66 style. AMT did not see a need to tool up a new or correct interior for the kit back in the day. Other than that, it's like any other kit tooled from that time period. It builds well, but is very low on detail on things like the chassis. Typical of other AMT annual kits of the time.

Like all the AMT '65 and '66 full-size GM cars (except the Grand Prix), the roof isn't right. The window cutouts are different side to side. One side is almost right, the other is clearly wrong. IIRC the driver's side is wrong but don't quote me on that.
