oldman23 Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 Hi Everyone I just received the AMT 38453 --63 Ford 3 in 1 Advanced Customing Kit. The one with the retro box art. I opened it only to find the body in bad shape. The right rear Quarter panel Is wavy are they all like this? Ernie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
62rebel Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 must be a rogue unit, i've built several of that issue and none of the shells were damaged. too bad RC2 or whoever they are now doesn't replace them as the old AMT did. they sent me a complete shell once for a 64 Impala too warped to straighten. maybe clamping that quarter between two pieces of basswood and dipping it in hot water will straighten it? worst comes to worse, cut it off and rebuild it from sheet plastic. best of luck correcting it; it's a subject model i love.
