I recently started the AMT Vega Funny Car.  The chassis is nearly complete and body work has begun.

It seems I can't leave anything alone sometimes.

I didn't like the kit roll cage, so I made my own.  I also didn't like the front wheels and tires, so I raided the parts bin.

The body sits directly on the rear tires, so the openings were radiused. The door lines are gone (as should be on a one-piece fiberglass body) but the hood line remains.  That was filled in.

The kit comes with clear aft quarter windows for the wagon version and fillers to make it a panel delivery.  I am still undecided as to which version to use.

The chassis fits together well, but there is moderate flash on the trees.
