The side scoops dont have the flatter centre section and are rounded on every surface Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casey Posted August 21, 2021 Author Share Posted August 21, 2021 Very wide (four-place) bench seat, molded in red. Was thinking JO-HAN Cadillac Ambulance/Rescue, but O don't think it's from that kit. White bench seat from Revell '64 Chevy Fleetside for comparison: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 That seat is probably from one of the 1/20 scale MPC Ford Club Wagon kits ('70 or '71 passenger versions). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Casey Posted February 10, 2022 Author Share Posted February 10, 2022 A few more I could use help identifying. Roof section for a '63-'67 Corvette?: MPC '73 Mercury Cougar?: Top, AMT Tuff Truck grille? #3 looks early Mustang custom-ish. #4 looks early Camaro like. I think #6, the fender, is for the Multi-Maverick?: IMC VW Beetle?: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Sikora II Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 I think that first roof section might be from the 1961 SMP or 1962 AMT Corvette annuals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pack rat Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 Second piece from the top in your group pic looks like the custom front pan for the MPC '74 Duster (mine isn't nearby to verify though). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pack rat Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 The square custom grille (73 Cougar?) is from the AMT '65 Lincoln hardtop (maybe the convertible too?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bainford Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 In the group pic, the top item is indeed the AMT Tuff Truck grill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never would have guessed that, as there appears to be a leaping/pouncing large cat at the top right. 🐱 29 minutes ago, pack rat said: Second piece from the top in your group pic looks like the custom front pan for the MPC '74 Duster (mine isn't nearby to verify though).

Mark Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 The roof piece is from the AMT '62 Corvette hardtop (annual) Stylizing kit. It wasn't in the convertible annual kit, and of course not in any of the reissues. There were clear panels that fit the notched areas, and those had pins that allowed them to swing up. That was the only hardtop included in that kit. A stock one wasn't included. So, if you bought the '62 Corvette hardtop annual kit, and built the stock version, you ended up with a convertible, same as the convertible kit...which you could have bought for half a buck less in '62.

Can-Con Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 (edited) The black sunvisor is from the early '90s AMT Ford pickups. IIRC, it was in all the versions. The bumper/ribbed panel 2 above it is the custom rear piece from an AMT '73 Mustang, possibly the '71 and '72 also but I'm not sure.

Casey Posted February 11, 2022 Author Share Posted February 11, 2022 Thanks, Steve. One more, a bumper and valance panel combo, early Camaro sized or so: Backside: Top view: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snake45 Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 (edited) Looks like '67-'69 Barracuda, maybe.

espo Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 Sure, looks like a Pinto dash. I think it even says Pinto on the passenger side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does, but I wasn't sure on the year range. A few more. Engine support/wishbone for a VW Beetle flat four? Looks AMT light blue in color, measures ~3/4" x 3/4": 99.9% the dog is from the AMT/Ertl issue '57 Fairlane, but the (half) figure? Color looks the same, but maybe from a different kit?
