Porscheman Posted August 9, 2013 Posted August 9, 2013 This is the last of the great buys I got at Macungie swap meet last weekend. This AMX was a $10.00 gluebomb, was 90% complete. The only thing missing were the wheel and tires. I started on this one yesterday morning with 2 coats of Tamiya white primer and wet sanding. Next, 3 coats of Testors AMC Big Bad Blue Lacquer and 2 coats of Testors Wet Look Clear.The interior was done in semi gloss black and a boat load of BMF.Ray, now I can sleep.LOLHope you like it.Al
Sportabout Posted August 9, 2013 Posted August 9, 2013 Yes, I really like it Nice to see these classics built.
cobraman Posted August 9, 2013 Posted August 9, 2013 Good night Al. : ) Another very nice build. That color is perfect for that car.
charlie8575 Posted August 9, 2013 Posted August 9, 2013 Nice color pick. I have an unbiult full-detail kit downstairs I need to do something with. For curiosity's sake, what color was yours molded in? Mine's purple and I'm trying to figure out how to paint it without have a big problem on my hands. Charlie Larkin

Try Dupli-color's sandable primer on yours, I've never had a problem with bleed through.Al
Harry P. Posted August 9, 2013 Posted August 9, 2013 Ok Al... you know I don't have to say it. What's missing?
JunkPile Posted August 9, 2013 Posted August 9, 2013 Ok Al... you know I don't have to say it. What's missing? Would it be the caps on the valve stems?
Harry P. Posted August 9, 2013 Posted August 9, 2013 Would it be the caps on the valve stems? Something waaaaaaaaay more obvious.
JunkPile Posted August 9, 2013 Posted August 9, 2013 Something waaaaaaaaay more obvious. I see it now...too many rivets in the rocker panels
Modelbuilder Mark Posted August 9, 2013 Posted August 9, 2013 Something waaaaaaaaay more obvious. Plates? nah....wait....your gonna say rust aren't you?

krazyglu Posted August 10, 2013 Posted August 10, 2013 That thing look's wicked, I love the color. Any interior picture's before you put it together?
Danno Posted August 11, 2013 Posted August 11, 2013 Sweet build! * Harry's 'Tough Love' campaign is beginning to reflect his obsession, and even mirror his compulsion, to help others see what they left behind in their builds.
