I just finished the AMT version. Old and tired mold but with a little patience it can yield a pretty cool looking model. Loved the pad printed Polyglas GTs.....

I think the stance looks great!  Beautiful build!

I bet the chassis from the soon to be released Revell '68 Chevelle will be an excellent chassis and engine donor for both the Revell snap kit and the AMT kits. 

BTW, here's a few shots of my AMT kit. Lots of filling and sanding on the sides to get it right [ish].

I added a vinyl top and the chrome strips and photoetch emblems to convert it to a Malibu.

The AMT kit's body isn't all that bad.  Other than the side bulges the overall shape looks good.  This build above by Can-Con shows how good this kit can look with a bit of work to the sides.  Can-Con did an excellent job modifying the sides.

The Monogram is nice but the roof is a bit too high and not sloped right and the front headlight area is too flat.  The Revell snap kit's roof is too rounded.  Overall I like the AMT body best.
