A Pair of AMT Double T Pickups (sort of....)

[Terry Jessee]

Both of these were built from original kits. The yellow one was built from a garage sale find in 1978. I was pretty excited to find it because at the time the kit was long out of production. It showed up in Street Rodder's "Modelers' Corner" a couple times, once with Tim Boyd, and once with Mike Carroll.

The stock T was built in 1999 from an original kit I found on eBay. I intended to use it and the yellow roadster for Hot Rod Model Kits, but that photo got cut.

Anyway, here they are. When you think of it, both of them are 50-year-old plastic. It's a fun kit, and I'm glad Round2 saw fit to bring it back.

I'm having fun re-photographing old stuff.

Digging the T models! I have a stack of them myself. I hear someone did some nifty Resin T bodies that fit on them. I might have to build one of them!

I love the comparsion, the contrast between these fine models!

Absolutely beautiful cars!

Both still look good today. The original kit has withstood the test of time. I like the horn on the yellow one, I know it came with the original kit now and one has been floating around in my parts box for years. You did a fine job on the wheels on the black one also.

Great work on them both, quite the contrast.
