Amt '62 Buick Electra 225

Everything old...

 

...is new, again:

I can't help but think the new reissue's box lid art would've made Harry smile, too.

With a pair of the '62 Buick kits we can build something rare and interesting:  a '62 Electra stretched limo.  Want to go even bigger?  The Flxible Coach Corporation also built 1962 Buick ambulances and hearses: "With the info that came with car, it looks like the Flxible coach corporation produced 2 of these for GM for a cost study feasibility. All the rear area is trimmed similar to a 75 series Cadillac with jump seats and rear a/c heater controls but no radio controls. It has a divider partition but no glass."

Gotta give 'em props for the elephant in the window ?

Sorry to say, I love Buicks. But, I have enough of these. It's a nice kit, and hope it sells well (again).

(Maybe time to build a full custom? I don't remember if the custom version of this kit is good looking or not?)

Roof donor for a '62 Coupe deVille kitbash, if you're ambitious and have a Jo-Han Fleetwood gathering dust...

Looked at few box built custom '62 Buicks on line. After seeing what I saw, I see no need to add another '62 Buick to my collection soon.

...totally agree, Scott....I have the last issue yet to be built, and one is plenty for me.....much as I am a big Round2 fan all the way, not sure if this one is the best choice to be popped out....again,,,, and again...,,,,,,,,,the Ace.....

Just in case anyone has one of these as a parts kit / doner . I could use the tail lights out of one to fix an old annual convertible I have
