YBlock292 Posted July 4, 2015 Posted July 4, 2015 This model is based on a very old AMT-kit which has been reproduced several times. AMT has added some extra parts so the newest version of the kit can be build stock or as a drag racing "power wagon". I decided to build it slightly customized with a nice set of chrome wheels and ww-tires (I know that the white stripe this size refers to the 50s, but it looks great on the car according to my opinion). Color is "pastel blue" by Duplicolor. So, here is my "collection" of long roofs so far: 65 Chevelle, 66 Chevelle, 60 Plymouth Suburban
Snake45 Posted July 4, 2015 Posted July 4, 2015 Very nice! A good, clean build. This model is based on a very old AMT-kit which has been reproduced several times. AMT has added some extra parts so the newest version of the kit can be build stock or as a drag racing "power wagon". I don't think they've "added" much if anything to it. I have one from the mid-'70s that has all the custom and racing parts, and I always thought they've been part of this kit since 1965.
DeeCee Posted July 4, 2015 Posted July 4, 2015 (edited) That is a very nice build, and who cares what era the white walls are meant to be from, they look perfect on this build mate. VERY VERY nicely done. I like the others too... Edited July 4, 2015 by DeeCee
gardnerpag44 Posted July 4, 2015 Posted July 4, 2015 Some great looking wagons , really like all of them very Cool
Sledsel Posted July 5, 2015 Posted July 5, 2015 Well, I will share your opinion and say the whites do look great. Great set of long roofs too.
Atmobil Posted July 5, 2015 Posted July 5, 2015 Great looking wagon, I got the kit myself and it is a gem. I sure wish they made more wagon kits with this much extra parts in them.
unclescott58 Posted July 5, 2015 Posted July 5, 2015 All three wagons look good. And the wide whites look fine on the car. Scott
YBlock292 Posted July 6, 2015 Author Posted July 6, 2015 Thank You guys for Your positive comments on my Station wagons! @Snake45: I think You are right, the 65 Chevelle sw-kit has always been the same over all these years.
kilrathy10 Posted July 8, 2015 Posted July 8, 2015 (edited) Dude....That is one awesome looking wagon.....The rest of the collection ain't bad, either.....The 3rd shot of the car on the gray parking lot looking surface is awesome.....Looks so real in that one.... Edited July 8, 2015 by kilrathy10
YBlock292 Posted July 9, 2015 Author Posted July 9, 2015 Thank You! JT, I also thought that the 3rd photo gives a very realistic look on the car. This shows how much the quality of daylight / shade can influence the shot. Ludwig
