Modeling memory…
Friday, November 22, 2013
From time to time I get posts about fan favorites. This recent message from Sheila. My favourite memory was when I found out that AMT had re-released the 1976 AMC Gremlin X, I was so excited that when the kit was released, I bought seven of them! I own a 1975 Gremlin, so I thought a ’76 would be good enough, but then AMT re-released the 1975 AMC Gremlin X! I am now working on a model of my real car! Also, quite recently, I found out that MPC was re-releasing the 1978 AMC Pacer X, and when it gets released, I’ll have to buy some of those too!
What are some of your own favorite modeling memories?
Re: 1955 Chevy Nomad (AMT kit # 637) what a poorly created kit-
Build sheets& drawing vague – part numbers molded on the
trees not shown on the build sheets each part has to be
freed of FLASH before using – photo of the completed model
has no bearing on what the completed model will look like
where is all the chrome trim seen on the Nomad in the
photo -Not in the box You can’t take any pride in pushing
this cheap Chinese model kit can you ? Are you able to
sell a 2nd amt model kit to anyone ? Or is kit # 637 the
only crude one ?
