AMT 55' Chevy Cameo PU

[skymnky721]

Greetings from Mtr Cty,,  a recent 10$  find at a swap meet,,AMT's   55' Chevy  Cameo.  Such a beautiful body design,,and trim ect.  Added a few  "improvised"  { AKA  "Scratchbuilt"}  bits,,rims,,headrests,,tires.  Although the width of the top of the bed//front  is wider than the  cab rear. Not sure about the tooling on that one. Still a fun +simple kit  to do.  Sprayed w/Testors  Quickdry  laq,,,Burnt orange. Just  a  cruiser  w/the 265 stock mtr,,nothin major.  We now return you to your regularly scheduled program,,Cheers!

Thanks so much,,enjoy yours builds as well,,so  much great stuff on here.  It would be a bit  better if I had put some aftermarket stuff on it,,prewired dist,,ect .  But it turned out ok.  Build on!

Nice looking Cameo.  I have one I'm working on and the bed does have some issues.

thanks,,yea I do remember something about the bed,,I think I  filed some of the mating edges slimmer or something to get a decent fit.
