Missing Parts

[Bullitt]

I've been working on an AMT 1957 Bel Air hardtop I had started a long time ago, the date on the instructions says 1996, so I've had it a while. Assembling the frame last night, and getting ready to do some painting on body parts. Went to grab the interior tub and seats for painting and lo & behold, no interior tub. No idea where it went over the past years, or even if it was there to begin with. It is a nice kit, even came with plug wires and a sheet of Bare Metal Foil. Back on the shelf she will go unless I can find a spare interior, or it may become a parts car.

Now on to a 1932 Ford 5 window, hope it goes better :-)

Phil, is this the one with the opening trunk? If so, the interior builds up, no bucket at all. A floor pan, two door panels that extend into the trunk, seats and a dash.

[Bullitt]

Trunk does open, I'll check at lunch & let you know.

Thanks

No problem, if you find these, you're good to go!

Go to Round2 web site and follow instructions for missing parts.  Usually you need the UPC from the box, fill out the form, and mail off.  In about 2 weeks you will receive your missing parts.  I have used this procedure several times with great success.

Thanks, I'll give it a try.

Also, make a post in the wanted section, I'm sure someone here has a parts kit they've robbed something from and they've got this part left over.

Checked with Round 2, they only go back as far as 2008.

I know you said its a AMT kit but the instructions and assembly method looks just like a old Revell kit one...I checked my parts and do not have one here...sorry would loved to be of help.

It's an AMT/Ertl from 1998, oldie but goodie. I have some small sheets of metal from Hobby Lobby and am thinking of trying to fabricate a base that would work. Not sure how to go about it, but would be a good custom item if it turned out.

I posted you a thread in the wanted section and linked your profile to it so they can pm you directly but if anyone reaches out to me I'll point them in your direction. Here is a link to an ebay listing of a kit that will also have the part you need that you can pick up pretty cheap.

TaDa! I found the floor pan. I was looking in one of my desk drawers for paint brushes and there it was. It was under some misc. stuff. Don't know if it fell in while I was working on the model, or whether gremlins in the basement hid it on me. I am in the middle of the 32 5 window now, but this will be back on the workbench soon.

Thanks for all the suggestions and help.
