Any Idea what kit this is from, I bought it years ago and forgot about it.  I have no idea what it is, I thought it might be a Falcon but I compared them and Not even close.  Any idea out there?  Thanks for any help.

Body is '65 Fairlane, dashboard is from a second-generation Buick Riviera (custom version), chassis is from a midsize GM car ('64-'65 GTO or '64 Olds F-85, possibly '64-'65 El Camino).  Not sure about what is left of the interior, it's not the Fairlane unit as it appears to be too wide for the body.  I'd be tempted to do something with that, there's a lot of work in smoothing that body off.  Just needs the panel lines rescribed.  A Modified Stocker Fairlane kit can provide a hood, chassis, and interior bucket that will fit better. 

I've got an original AMT '62 Impala convertible like that, that I bought because the windshield frame was straight and all the leftover stock parts were included.  I bought it to part out, but after looking it over I decided it should be kept as-is.

Thanks for the info.

For what it's worth, those were exactly my guesses when looking at the pictures.
