Milner’s coupe from American Graffiti
by Bryce Thu 12 Feb 2009, 11:57 am
Very glad to finally have this one off the bench and on the shelf!
It’s a project I’ve been working on for about 15 years. A replica of John Milner’s coupe from the movie American Graffiti, it’s based on the Revell ’32 roadster kit and uses a home made resin body I created by grafting the chopped AMT roof onto the Revell roadster body.
The rest is either from another kit or scratchbuilt.
PS - thanks to Paul for the plates.
Here’s a link to a WIP if you’re looking for a bit more detail:
