Finally finished this (1999 boxing AMT/ERTL The Munsters Koach kit 30098).  Was a gift from Christmas (2023) from my Brother-in-law.  Built out of the box, with the exception of pinning the "brake light" with a straight pin, and pinning the brackets that hold Eddie's seat, as there is no usable mounting point whatsoever.  I also filled the void on the back of Eddie's seat. 

Tamiya lacquers and acrylics used throughout.  The gold trim is Bare Metal foil, and I lost the gold finish when I polished, so I overcoated the gloss black with the same Alclad Candy Golden Yellow that I used for the gold (brass?) trimmed parts.  

This is the AMT kit from

I built this kit a few months ago. You did a much better job with it! I just didn’t have the patience with all the details. You did, and they really make a big difference. Nice job!

Thank you - I was surprised at how well the moldings have held up; hardly any flash at all.

Beautiful job on this, it can be a tough build!

Thank you!  Yes - I was also surprised the see that the entire body structure is molded as one piece - curtains and all!  Fun to mask! :)

Cool to see. Great job. It was a mind blower when this car first appeared on the TV show.

Thank you! It was a little before my time, but I did watch a couple of reruns after I received the kit (was a gift from my brother-in-law).  What a gas! :)

That looks awesome. I need to build mine.

Thank you!  Yep, you should build it - it's a different sort of build, for sure.

A lot of intricate details to build a model of this TV car and bring it to this level.  

Thank you!
