Can-Con Posted January 25, 2020 Posted January 25, 2020 (edited) I like it a lot. The paint is beautiful. I didn't know Steve did those wheels, I got a very similar [same spokes] set form a die-cast '60 Ford Galaxie several years ago. Edited January 25, 2020 by Can-Con

Yes he made these as well as some torque thrust wheels that I have from him. they are similar but the spokes on these are slightly different.

Modlbldr Posted February 8, 2020 Posted February 8, 2020 That is such an amazing build for a kit that leaves a lot to be desired when it comes to fit. I just finished the same kit and, although I thought mine was a decent job, yours is outstanding! I love the color too. Smooth, shiny and gorgeous! Later-

This kit was indeed a nightmare on the fit and finish. A lot had to be modified or tweaked where it would even fit half way decent. It was way more work than what I wanted to put into it, I guess I have been spoiled by Tamiya kits for too long. This will probably be my last AMT kit, lol.
Modlbldr Posted February 10, 2020 Posted February 10, 2020 I understand about the fit. I never understood how they got so far off on the fit of the glass in this kit. Here is mine, posted here not too long back. Later-

How did you get yours lower? And you are right, the glass fit like dookie. I had to do a lot of filing to make it fit even close.

Thanks, this was first started over 2 years ago when I didn't have any customized stuff under my belt. Too much had been done to go back and tear apart to repaint for a lower rear, lol.

Claude Thibodeau Posted October 1, 2020 Posted October 1, 2020 Hi! Considering the hurdles you say you faced, this is a superb result. Bravo! I have this kit in my stash, and I will look at it hard and long, the glass in particular, based on your remarks. CT
