OK well here's what I've been working on now.... I started out with this ebay build up a few years ago. After a swim in the lake.. And back in the box it went for several years until I decided to revisit it the other day and dumped it out on the bench. First up was to fill in those rail holes with stretched sprue and super glue, then sanded smooth. Then I scribed a new hood opening line to counter the custom front clip The custom clips didn't fit very well and needed a little persuasion A little mud.. And first coat of primer. Still more to do. I'm still trying to decide on colors and wheel package.

Hey, looking good! I like that you're going to re-use the custom front and rear clips.

That front custom clip is an especially nice touch for this. Here's my suggestion: Body: candy red with metalflake gold side panel and roof top Interior: pearl white Wheels: open chrome with bullet spider

I will be checking on this one often. I remember building one when they first came out. It's weird the things I remember from almost 60 years ago but can't remember what I had for supper last night. I hope you have fun putting this oldie together. Gary

Thanks guys! I appreciate the suggestions, comments and encouragement on this one. Been a little busy around here but I did manage to get a little paint detail on the AMT basic chassis plate...
