Favorite all time Kit\Build

[MrBuick]

What's your favorite kit or personal build of all time? So far, mine is the Revell '67 Corvette...both the Coupe and Roadster. I've got one of each that I'm putting together now and I love them. Everything fits very nicely, and it's one of the best looking cars of all time in my opinion.

I kinda like the Revell Kenworth and Peterbilt snap kits. There are so many different things you can do to them.

Hard to say. The AMT '66 Skylark would definitely be in the Top Five, though.

Favorite kit and or subject matter.

Hands down the MPC 1972 Vega funnycars,,,especially the Pat Foster driven Barry Setzer car.

I built one of these many years ago when they were new.

I had to build another one when I bought a clean builtup ( have since bought 3 or 4 more ) Plus I have a mint in the box unbuilt ,,that will stay that way.

I feel like you're just taunting me!

Momogram 1/8 scale Jaguar XKE.

I got it as a Christmas gift when I was a kid... my dad and I built it (ok, mostly my dad!)... great memories and a fantastic kit.

Revell 69 Nova

Favorite kit is the Monogram F-350. Favorite build of all time the Lindberg 53 Ford Victoria. The Victoria was just one of those builds that went perfect from start to finish, no hiccups and turned out better than it should have with the skills and tools I had at the time.

1/16 Aurora Pinto Funny car kit. Got one years ago when they first came out and was impressed with the detail. Would like another but kinda pricey now if you can find one.

Revell '67 Charger. A fantastic kit of my very favorite muscle car.

Car kit...the new Revell 29. Haven't built very many car kits in my time, but I really like this kit.

Truck kit... the Pete and KW snappers.

This is by far, the build I'm proudest of. Not perfect, it has flaws, but it was my first build in 10 years. It came out just how I wanted.

The Revellogram '37 Ford coupe kit............ Favorite kit and subject 

[zenrat]

AMT '60 Chevy Pickups.  Built two.  One day i'll build one OOB if i can find one but they're like rocking horse s***t down here.

Come on Round Two, repop some of these.

 

[slusher]

Revell 67 Coronet and AMT 49 Ford. The Revell 67 Coronet is a really great kit.

Mine is Tamiya 956. I got seven of this kit and already done 2.  It fits really great, i even don't have to glue the body to the chassic, so i can change the body easily.

For me its real hard to narrow down but here is some of them...

Johan snap kits

Hubley car kits

Aurora 1/16th scale funny car and diorama kits

AMTs Craftsman series kits

And while others from my childhood were some of my favorites some were tough builds but would jump at a chance to have them again.

PS...beautiful builds everyone.

AMT 1953 F-100

Monogram 1970 Boss 429 Mustang (and its variants)

AMT Chevy Van

[Mr Stock]

One of my favourite kits of all time is the AMT 62 Chevy Bel Air, I just love that one, closely followed by the newer tooled Revell Tri 5 Chevys.

1:12 Blower Bentley.

Momogram 1/8 scale Jaguar XKE.

I got it as a Christmas gift when I was a kid... my dad and I built it (ok, mostly my dad!)... great memories and a fantastic kit.

I got one for Christmas too. I wonder what year it might have been? 1963?

I can't think of a more troublefree build than that one was. The Monogram '70 GTX and Superbird were also completely painless. Great easy builds, but not my very favorite subject matter.

I thought of another one that would make my Top Five: JoHan '69 Road Runner. Loved it as a kid, looking forward to doing at least a couple more of them.

I got one for Christmas too. I wonder what year it might have been? 1963?

It's most likely a '61 or an early '62. Those were the only model years with external bonnet latches, which are molded onto the kit. In any case, it's a Series 1 3.8L car with a flat floor.

In someways this is like asking me which is my favorite child. It's almost impossible to say. If I do need to be pinned down, it may be AMT's '57 Thunderbird. Not the greatest kit in the world. But one that had a major impact on me as a kid.
