'74 Plymouth GTX

Hi. This is a recent re-release of an older AMT kit. Paint will be something by Cobra colors but the specific shade is undecided as of yet. The kit chassis is awful and will be replaced with the underpinnings of the AMT '68 Road Runner. Thanks.

Re: '74 Plymouth GTX

looks good so far. I have a few of those 74 Runner's. the 68 Runner Chassis is a good choice, but I plan on the chassis on mine with the one from the AMT 71 Charger. its more accurate for the Runner.

I have no idea what happened to the tooling this kit, some parts of the original ended up in the 77 Monaco 4dr, and it seems they used the chassis from the Monaco 2dr kit under this one. I have idea why did a chassis swap.

Re: '74 Plymouth GTX

Howdy; this is on hold until my '71 Charger arrives. Thanks for the interest I'm looking forward to this one because I haven't done a muscle car in a loooong time
