rmvw guy Posted October 1, 2015 Posted October 1, 2015 Pretty sure it's the AMT body modified to fit the Revell fenders & chassis. I think Don has a different account on here now, don't know if he'll see this. Thanks Brett, I did not notice it was from 2009. Looks like maybe the Revell chassis like you said.
Ace-Garageguy Posted October 1, 2015 Posted October 1, 2015 That's a beauty, for sure.Looks like either a resin body, or the old too-short-at-the-cowl AMT unit modified to the correct height...on the Revell chassis, as already suggested.

I know it's all plastic, forget how he modified the cowl, I think he grafted in a section from the Revell kit along the lower portion of the cowl and doors. I'll send him a message to check in, I see he hasn't logged into his other account since August!
carrucha Posted October 10, 2015 Posted October 10, 2015 I am glad this was brought back up. I missed it the first time. Cool build. Good job making this simple kit look nice.
