I just got this one finished up it’s a combination of parts from the AMT model T for the body and front axle assembly with the wish bones from the Atlantis fiat . I did cut the pickup bed shorter and used the interior cover from the parts pack T .The frame and long block are from the AMT double dragster . The valve covers are are comp resin the blower is an old revell piece that been resting in my parts box for years. I’m not sure what the belt drive came from. The injector scoop is from the MPC Ohio George Mustang gasser. The rear wheels and slicks are also left overs from the Atlantis Fiat the rear is a parts box item relocated in a more forward position on the frame. I used one of the optional seats with belts from AMT’S 1964 Olds 442 hard top .I covered it with testors yellow enamel topped with decals from joe at Freemont resin. I’m really thrilled how this one came out using all leftover parts. Until next time thanks for looking.

WOW! I’m bind blown this is so awesome! My family is the car owner and my mom and I have been trying so hard to find a model to build and surprise my dad with (my grandpa is Nolan Pritchard, original owner) & we don’t have the skill you do to put parts together! I am beyond impressed and emotional. I can’t believe someone actually had a model of our car. It means so much that you spent your time on this!! You say you’re thrilled, that’s an understatement to us! ?
