Deathgoblin Posted April 20 Posted April 20 Just finished this one today. I had it mostly done, but the can of Prowler purple I had went bad. Used Tamiya metallic purple (PS-18) instead. I'm really happy with this one. 9
athlon Posted April 21 Posted April 21 Very nice, clean build, I almost started that same kit last week

There were some fit issues on this one too. I had to pull the body back off at one point for two issues: You have to make sure that the radiator is tilted slightly towards the rear or the body wont go on forward enough to install the front suspension. Also the rear of the frame just in front of the rear wheels needs to be trimmed off. It has a solid vertical panel which is not only inaccurate, but interferes with installing the rear wheels. 1
ncbuckeye67 Posted April 23 Posted April 23 Great looking build! Very clean work. I have two of these kits, one with, and one without the trailer (both AMT). You may have inspired me to build one. I've never seen one at any show I've been to. They're a really fun car to drive too!
Kenmojr Posted April 23 Posted April 23 Nice work, too bad Chrysler stopped making these "street rods"... I kind of liked them...
DJMar Posted April 24 Posted April 24 I'm digging it. Nice call on the color, you can't go wrong with purple! The AMT full detail kit builds up really nicely.
