53gmc Posted May 29, 2023 Posted May 29, 2023 Built this one as a replica for a friend for a graduation present. Started with the amt 49'r kit for the chassis and interior. The body is a jimmy flinstone that i sanded the side moldings off. I swapped the kits motors for a sbc like the real one. The interior is stock except i made the blanket for the backseat and added the magazine. I also added his real license plate number and car club plaque. 6
