1950 Chevy Pick-Up

Amt’s 50 Chevy was a really nice and the instructions were fairly clear this time. I had an issue with inner fender and firewall alignment, but nothing significant. Used some tires and wheels from the parts box that gave it a cool stance with no suspension modifications. Nice little period 6 cylinder engine. Highly customizable kit. Have at it and have fun!

I wouldn't say its the best kit but then its not the worst I'm sure too, it definitely seems to have some issues that seem to arise fit wise with some parts that can cause some hiccups with this kit. I would probably recommend it more for experienced model builders and not those that are somewhat new to the hobby or are looking for a first project involving gluing parts together. Overall I really can't say if I'd recommend it strongly but I think it would be better to leave that choice up to the individual.

Got this as a Christmas present and was my first build for 2022. This AMT kit was perfect. No flash, parts fit great, and the instructions were very clear. The rear fenders are separate parts, so it makes it very easy to paint as shown on the box art. The front fenders are molded to the cab, but I just used very thin Tamyia masking tape and was able to easily spray the fenders and different color than the cab/hood. The bed has a nice woodgrain detail that is easy to highlight with some craft paint. I used a Molotov marker to highlight the chrome inserts between the wood slats.
