Love it. Great job.

Great looking colors and finish. The chrome trim is cleanly done as well.

Beautiful paint and foil work as we've come to expect from your bench!  Is this the AMT kit?

It is an AMT “Junior Craftsman” kit.

Basically the snap kit of the day.

I believe that they were released later than the original 3 in 1 kits, and were basically an unassembled promo with stock parts only.

You've made that car look good. I see that you had some good weather, those picks really pop.

Great detail work on the side spear and wheel covers.

I'm curious about the wheel covers. Did this kit come with decals for the "E"s in the center? The AMT '58 Pacer kit didn't so I hand painted them.

There were no decals at all provided with these kits to my knowledge.

 

The "E" in the wheel center was a raised letter, so it was a simple operation to paint the center black and then clean the paint from the E with a little thinner.

Wonderful model of the ill-fatec Edsel, Steven: perfet paint and foil work, as usual with all your builds.
