The Phantasy Pheaton

[Koellefornia Kid]

Hi,

I had Revell’s Alternomad kit in my stash for a long time. Bought it as donor kit for some nice parts but i never touched for years until I remembered an idea given to us by Thom Taylor himself. in SAE magazine issue January ‚99 Zoom showed alternative ideas of his Revell kits including an Alternomad with a Monkee Mobile ragtop. And since I build my Monkee Mobile with a ’67 GTO hardtop the MM ragtop was ready for a swap.The Alternomad lost its roof and became the „Phantasy Pheaton“:

Apart from the roof swap  the Phantasy Phaeton was lowered, shaved, equipped with Jay’s resin wheels and skinny whitewall tires, modified side trim, ‚59 Chevy taillights. moulded grille housing with a custom mesh grille and scratch built exhaust tips.

      and for tose asking themselves what happened to the rest of the Monkee Mobile:

Comments are welcomed and appreciated !

Hope you like it and Merry X-mas!

Hi Oliver!

I have the remnants of that wagon in my stash (pirated the roof), and you great idea makes me smile. The "remnant" second car is also very impressive. Bravo, and happy holidays!

Now that is great. Very cool build, great color combo, excellent engine details, great wheels and tires.
