vamach1 Posted February 25, 2020 Posted February 25, 2020 Did you use some parts from the MPC Flipout kit or just modify the AMT 66 coupe? Nice work sir.

MeatMan Posted February 26, 2020 Posted February 26, 2020 Nice change of pace build! I love keeping the 4 bolt wheels on the front.
Roadrunner Posted February 26, 2020 Posted February 26, 2020 Not bad at all. It's strangely reminiscent of my own AMT Mustang AWB car.

STYRENE-SURFER Posted February 26, 2020 Posted February 26, 2020 Dave... you have have some terrific builds. Glad you are sharing them with all of us. Where did you source that engine from? Looks like an FE.

Roadrunner Posted February 26, 2020 Posted February 26, 2020 (edited) While we're on the subject, it pleases me to see that all of your velocity stacks are lined up properly; I've see quite a few that are all cockeyed. Edited February 26, 2020 by Roadrunner
STYRENE-SURFER Posted February 26, 2020 Posted February 26, 2020 The AMT Mustang coupe doesn't have windshield wipers molded in? I'm currently trying to sand the wipers off the AMT A FX kit. Arrrgh!

They do, I filed and sanded them away then drilled holes where the shafts would’ve come up through the cowl to add a little depth of realism. And yes... Arrrgh. Tedious but a worthwhile detail

Thanks Kevin, it’s time consuming to get them straight
Scott8950 Posted March 2, 2020 Posted March 2, 2020 Did you use the awb chassis? The fe engine looks great in there. This is a very nice build, now i want to build one.
Snake45 Posted March 2, 2020 Posted March 2, 2020 Very different and therefore interesting build. You captured the look and feel of the era pretty well. Model on!

From that I built out my own suspension set up with the front moved forward small amount
