69 Galaxie

AMT 69 Galaxie, pretty basic kit

will be watching this one

Please tell me it's staying at that height. That is a sweet looking shape.

are you going with a candy colour or two tone blended colour on it.

thats the intended height, rear axle is standard and front is lowered using kit options color is going to be blue with some lame flake in it

Will keep an eye on this one!! I've always thought about grabbing this kit, but haven't as yet, is it worth getting?

its a reissue of an old style AMt kit .....extremly basic the interior consists of an interior cup all seats molded in place a dash, steering wheel and gearshift, chassis is one piece with all detail molded in place and screw holes through the fuel tank ( but no screws), rear axle is a metal rod pushed through chassis only one height provided ( if u want to change that u have to drill your own holes) front axles are stubby sqares that stick onto the chassis there are two sets for different height options ( i have used the lowered ones) the engine has 3 options standard 427, 427 cammer, and injected 427 (i have used the cammer) body has some sink holes in the bootlid and the bonet has an X pattern sink mark that corresponds with the underside ribs, this is very faint and cant be seen untill after paint is applied ! i have used the stock hubcaps provided but there are also a set of chrome mags wich were fitted to the Gt variant. i like these big old barges and had to have one to add to my collection but its not much of a kit and may dissapoint some buyers

Ahh, cheers for the info, I've bought a few AMT kits like that, you open the box and it dam near makes you upset. But lemons are for lemonade after all. Looking forward to seeing what you make of it.

That should look alright mate, will keep watching.

got some paint and BMF on it, theres a couple of blemishes in the paint but they r shiney so im going to leave them be

Sounds like a typical former promo.
Having said that I want one. I'm a sucker for the big seppo land yachts - particularly the '70 Gal & the '70 Impala (another very basic kit) - I didn't know until i read this that they kitted a '69.

These former promos make for great kerbside builds. Slam them, glue the bonnet on and take a bit of effort with the interior.
