Originally started in 1966 and side lined, I did the body work in 1970 and set aside because of issues with the old AMT putty. Fixed the putty issues in about 1983 and painted it Mint Julip Candy with Clear Pearl about 1990. Painted the interior last week Pearl white with Silver accents and did the final assembly last night. A bit of a slow build but I like how it came out like a time machine. Now I'll tart my original AMT 1957 Ford kit.
