This an AMT kit. It is not an easy kit to build(fit problems), but with perseverence it can be made into a nice model.

This is not a good model, I think I could have done better.

Colour is Gunze orange-yellow.

A blurry shot of the engine. Oops just noticed I forgot the top radiator hose. ;)

Very nice, the colours work well, i have the Aifix '32 Imperial that has been on the go for a few years, it will be finished one day, i still can't make my mind up what colours i am going to paint mine,

Nice job on a cool classic car. The color is a good choice. There is a beautiful Packard Phaeton in the Nethercutt Collection that is painted almost the exact color. The AMT and Airfix releases of this kit are the same MPC Gangbusters tooling from the 60s. They are great kits but are easier to build if you can find an older release of it before the molds developed a lot of flash and the ejection pins got misaligned and mixed up.

I'm currently working on the Italeri version of the 32/33 Chrysler and although I've never built anything like this before I must admit it's been a fun build. I just wish Italeri had done their tires/whitewalls like Monogram, they would have been a lot less work.

Have a friend doing this kit so I'm looking forward to having them sit side by side on a club display table in the future.

It is hard to imagine Detroit painting cars in these vibrant colors back then but yours certainly looks sharp in yellow & red.
