Quality kit very nice great detail 427 Fairlane what's not to like

This is your typical AMT model kit, meaning, great detail to a fault, why not have the back side windows molded with the rear window, but since they are separate why not make them easily positionable instead of just making them to fall in place and wherever they end up is good enough, and where is the rearview mirror or side mirror, I had to find one myself, little things like that are common with AMT kits. With that being said this is a great model of a significant vehicle, I had the pleasure of seeing one of these in person at a car show in Mentor Ohio almost 20 years ago, I will always remember that car. This model realistically and accurately depicts that car. With that being said I deviated in 2 areas from the real car, I chose to put the bucket seats instead of the correct bench seat, and I added the dog dish hubcaps, which I would have opted for and just popped them off for racing.

When I first started this kit,I thought I was going to be disappointed. There was a lot of flashing on the parts, but no more than other kits that I have done from AMT or MPC. The more I got done the more I liked it. The motor has good detail but you don’t have any options unless you dig into your spare parts bin. I didn’t like the fact that you don’t get any chrome rims with this kit, but that wasn’t a big deal for me because I have a large inventory of extra rims. Everything did fit very well and the interior had some good detail. All in all this is a good kit.
