Amt 67 mustang fastback

[MrMiles]

While digging through my stash I found I had a 1967 gt350 from amt. 

After some serious finagling of the front and rear pieces I was finally able to get them on and not look terrible

 

However, I realized as I was working on this I would much rather build the regular non Shelby mustang fastback instead. 

 

Does the regular amt 67 mustang fastback kit have the same terrible fitting front and rear pieces like the gy350 Shelby has?

Yes the parts are interchangeable so the fit is not any better on either kit.  When I have built the kits I have glued the front and back pieces on and after a lots of sanding and shaping I paint the entire body as one piece.

As do I. Quite a bit of bending, shaping, and sanding.

ok thanks, i was hoping the regular fastback would have had better front and rear pieces.

i must be losing my mind. I looked at my model cabinet and I had an already completed 1967 mustang fastback in my display cabinet. I looked back at my topics and i had posted the same question because i had seen someone had said it fit nicely and i had a terrible time. 

 

wow.  im either so tired or just losing it

This is as clean as I'm going to get it. I think I have about 5 hours or so worth of fidling with the front and rear to try to get it perfect. I just need to sand the whole body to remove the rest of the mold lines and do a scruff on the body with the 3m ultra fine hand pad to give it a even scuff everywhere
