Sledsel Posted September 25, 2018 Posted September 25, 2018 When it comes to AMT 57 Thunderbirds, you have set the bar really high.........
peekay Posted September 25, 2018 Posted September 25, 2018 Always love your work Tulio, so clean and precise and shiny. And a great colour choice!
Lovefordgalaxie Posted September 25, 2018 Author Posted September 25, 2018 Thanks guys!! Your input is very appreciated. Also thanks for the support on the build.
charger74 Posted September 26, 2018 Posted September 26, 2018 (edited) Very nice t-bird Edited September 26, 2018 by charger74
Rider Posted September 26, 2018 Posted September 26, 2018 The rescribed panel lines sure paid off. Nice build.
Dominik Posted September 26, 2018 Posted September 26, 2018 Wow! what a beautiful result! Awesome Job. awesome.
Lovefordgalaxie Posted September 26, 2018 Author Posted September 26, 2018 Thanks guys!! It's so rare to see one of those AMT '57s built stock, or actually built, that I had to do it. It's a simple kit, the top has some problems, as does the windshield and it's trim, but the body is quite good.
Curt Posted September 27, 2018 Posted September 27, 2018 Great job, Tulio! I built one of these in the late ‘80s and agree with your assessment of the kit. My biggest gripe back then was the soft plastic they were using.

My biggest gripe back then was the soft plastic they were using. Thanks Curt! Mine is from 1989, made in Mexico. This box: The plastic is alright, but had a lot of flash. Even tough, it would be cool to see Round2 to reissue this 'Bird.
