This is a Johan 67 AMC Ambassador that I found in a dumpster

along with about 20 other kits in 1992. It was a complete glue

bomb as you can see in the pictures. This was the roughest car I

have ever started with.

The frame is from a Che-zoom full detail kit. The Ford 9 inch rear end is from R&D Unique (which I added later), and the wheels are from Pegasus.

All the body mods are complete and this is the first coat of primer.

The engine is the kit 327, with twin turbos from a Ferrari kit.

The interior is pretty much box stock, but it has a camaro console.

The color is Testors one-coat White Lightning.

The build as for another board competition, and will be finished by

Sep 15.

I will post updates when I have them. I am thinking of changing the color. As always questions or comments are welcome.

Thanks for looking Tom

Are you referring to the spelling, or what kit? ;)
