Yeah Nah Posted March 4 Author Share Posted March 4 10 hours ago, rrb124@sbcglobal.net said: Wish the kit manufacturers would pay attention to quality control. Thanks Robert. This one tested me but I try not to be too critical of manufacturers because let's face it without them I wouldn't have anything to build! I've found Round 2 to be consistently pretty good with the quality of re-issues of older kits which is why approx 80% of my kit stash are Round 2 products. To me those AMT Trophy Series kits are an absolute joy to behold. Unfortunately they seemed to have dropped the ball on this one for some reason. If there's an upside it sure sharpened my building skills and reminded me of how spoiled we generally are these days! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karbuildr Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 That's a beautiful Goat Garry. I feel your pain about this kit. I too have a soft spot for mid 60's Ponchos. I built the kit as well, and it's rough, to be kind. Yours looks beautiful in a dark color with lighter blue interior. The red lines and rallye wheels top it off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That particular fit issue I swear had the floor under my desk ankle deep in plastic shavings and sanding dust!😬 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobss396 Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 One of the 1st MPC kits I bought was a Pontiac, maybe a '66 or '67 full size. I was instantly impressed at how crisp the detail was and the bodies were not as thick as the AMT kits. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
70 Sting Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 Nice looking ride. Front and rear fascia turned out nice. Interior is nice, too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ragtop Man Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 You got everything that this old warhorse of a kit had to offer - and then some. This needs the "68 Coronet" treatment, IMO, but until they do this shows what is still left in the box. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
