Aurora had two Double kits.

Yes they did, and if I recall correctly I've never had either one of them.

I have built both cars from the 34 5W kit and they are stunners! There are some minor fit and parts location issues - I recall that the cycle fenders were a bit stressful - but otherwise they are a fabulous era perfect pair of builds, box stock! Dash detail is marginal but I swapped in the chrome instrument panel from the AMT 57 Chevy and we were good to go. Oh yeah, easily the best chrome plating I have ever seen on any kit in over 45 years of model building.

Have only got scraps of the Model T kit (the rodded version) and it looks OK - the button tufted seat insert was a nice touch. With the very few parts I have I can't say if it is significantly better or worse thatn other manufacturer's T-buckets but judging by the box art the stance was a bit on the funky side!

the 34s were pretty good and I am trying to get my hands on one to build, but those Ts were atrocious. in fact that might be a good name: Atrocious T. Sounds like a rapper though. might be some good parts in there...again just like a rapper, but most is kind of early sixties aint got a clue laughable. check the stance of the "rod". as others have pointed out though, great box art and that one of the two Ts on the road with the Amish or something with their buggy in the background. priceless Americana even if completely fictional. at least they accurately portray what I seem to remember in the box.

The '34 had been one of my grail kits for a long time. Then I got one. Serious scale and proportion issues (the body shell is way too narrow, etc.), but the box-art rod looked so good...Again, serious proportion issues. The box-stock build-up produces a car that looks, to me, too long, with an ungainly stance. Oh well.

Though I don't have the T kit, the stance of the box-art "rod" is perfect for some of the old-Ford-based dune runners of the '50s.
