AMT 66 olds 442 w30

Well i was walking around and found a garage sale...found this model and two more for .50 each so i im going to make them and share as i go along....im going to try to keep it oob but as we all know that never seem to happen. we always tend to add more detail and knowing me i will. Just cant help my self :naughty:

i would most likely wire and plum the engine bay. For a AMT model it happens to have great detail in the motor and in the bay but there's always a way to improve.

it was open and all the parts seem to in the box, the motor was started. and over painted with yellow so i sanded it down a bit to bring out some of its details

i plan to clean it a bit more and repaint it and if it still looks bad i guess Ill strip it. :mad:

Sorry for the bad pictures but im using my cell phone to take pics

That kit builds up quite well and responds nicely to detailing. Good luck on it. :sunglasse
