Looks similar, with the big servo in the right place, same overall shape, but the model is missing the tailshaft housing... Known as "Super Turbine 300", it came only with the BOP bolt pattern, so don't bother looking in Chevy kits.

Mark Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 A lot of older annual kits have the transmission tailshaft molded as part of the chassis. That goes back to their origins as dealer promos. Scratch a tailshaft and add it to the kit transmission...problem solved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typical engine-chassis arrangement on AMT annual kits of this period (including the steel axle through the engine block).
