Tyler62990 Posted December 23, 2018 Posted December 23, 2018 Here's my take on the classic AMT 40 Ford coupe. I was given this kit for a club build in which we partner up with someone, then give them a kit from your stash to do themselves. I have a Revell 40 that's going to end up as a hotrod at some point, so I figured the drag option was the way to go with this one. This tool shows its age, with it's shallow engraving and simplified design, but it was still a very enjoyable build, with most complications being caused by myself as usual. Anyway, there isn't much to say about the build that can't be seen. The vast majority of the parts are straight from the kit, with the exceptions being a couple decals, wiring and plumbing, and the scoop that comes from Revell's 55 Chevy street machine. Paint is Duplicolor Sealer (to hide the orange plastic), Duplicolor White Primer, Duplicolor Toyota silver, MM Chrysler Yellow, and Testors Star Spangled Blue. Thanks for looking!
donb Posted December 24, 2018 Posted December 24, 2018 This is a great looking drag car. Nice engine detail and the Tri-color works very nicely. Verl nicely done.
hvymtl Posted December 24, 2018 Posted December 24, 2018 I agree with everyone else it rocks man Michael

olschoolkid Posted January 16, 2019 Posted January 16, 2019 Nice 40. I really like the style. Is that a Buick Nailhead?
bisc63 Posted January 27, 2019 Posted January 27, 2019 Cool! Older kits still hold their own in the right hands! Well done, and the color choices are especially nice.
