randx0 Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 When Amt released this kit I was pretty excited . I thought it was the original AMT rabbit as the box art was so close . I received this kit as a birthday gift when I actually saw the box and opened it up I was a little disappointed. Not because this kit is bad but rather it wasn't what I thought it was . Honestly the subaru brat , vw scirocco , Meyers Manx etc . The OG rabbit seemed a logical expectation . I wanted the amt kit to build a desert racer based on the hot wheels Hare Splitter . That's still the plan but this kit became the rough draft and a slump buster and a reason to try something new . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is going to be good. The fender flares are super. How did you make the flares? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

espo Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 I like the roof rack. I don't think that's in the kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
