Mike 1017 Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 I LUV these AMT kits. Soo, Soo, easy to build with no issues. The small engine leaves plenty of room to detail the engine bay. The paint is Trumpet Gold a Buick color from Scalefinishes. When am I gonna learn to be more careful when taking pictures. I broke off the driver's side mirror. UGH! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moparmike619 Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 Nice! Love the color combo. The vinyl top looks quite nice on this car. I love the 69 Rivs, they don’t get the love the boat tails or the early models do, but I personally think they look the best. I have one of these on the bench at the moment as well, it does build up nicely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AMT68 Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 Nice work overall. And great job building the engine compartment. It's also one of my favorite AMT promo kit as I've built a few with a few more to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can-Con Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 (edited) Nice color. Fastback Rivs look great in almost any color though. 😁 BTW, the engine does look undersize but I have owned a few big block Buicks , a couple Rivs, including a '69 and it's about right. Always looked small to me too but I measured the kit valve covers and compared the size with the real set of Stage-1 valve covers I have hanging in the garage and it measures out to scale.

espo Posted July 21, 2023 Share Posted July 21, 2023 Great color. GM offered this shade on almost everything of that era and it shows the body lines in their best light. Like to see more of your engine detailing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
