G'day all, i originally built this model about 10 years ago but the paint wasn't real good so i pulled it apart and gave it a complete overhaul.
It has a set of wheel tubs grafted on to the rear with a pro rear end and engine. Interior has 4x bucket seats and a cage added.

I love the idea of this kit (mainly it's size!). But the reality is always a let down (poor detail).
It would be so good to see it updated to the same levels of detail as current AMT stuff like the '60 Starliner or '70 Superbee.

Which is why this is a great build Dale. Good job.

Thanks for the coments guys, i enjoy a good resto job, as you learn more, you think " i could have done a bit better" to a kit you really liked.
Ihave started a new resto today, yanked a wagon-rod off the shelf and have a few ideas for it , keep you all posted. bigthumbsup
