Here's a box stock build I just finished. I painted the wood grain on the dash and steering wheel, with Testor's Purpalicious lacquer for the color. The seats and top are off brand paint. It was a fun build to round out the end of summer.

Very nice! Great paint in particular!

I'm looking forward to getting one of these. I had one as a kid but never finished it--not sure I've ever seen one built before. It looks like the "cabin" might be a little short (imagine trying to get into the thing!). I might have to consider moving the dash panel forward a bit for better proportions.

Not long ago I built an old Manx kit as a bare-frame dune buggy and know that AMT's placement of the seats/shifter/pedals/steering wheel in relation to each other is a little funky.

Thanks again for posting these pics!
