1968 Shelby GT500

Nice kit but you will do a lot of prep work on almost all parts( flashing). Also, in my kit, seems like parts in the sealed chrome package may be missing( see pictures) I know a m t uses same molds on different 68 mustang kits that have some basic parts. I'll update as the building process progresses. Happy modeling

A couple reviews mentioned lots of flash and poor mold quality, this is absolutely correct. I had to cut and re-glue the rear axle leaf spring to get it to fit properly. I also had to do a lot of sanding and test fitting before paint. The front grill and bumper piece had to be really worked to get a proper fit. This is important because it is such a key element to this car. There are few extra parts, I would recommend the stock option. If you get the paint right it's not a bad finished model, just not a great finished model. I can't not recommend it, because it is such a classic car. Just not one of AMT's better models.

New cast of old mold. A lot of flash to be trimmed and Every part needs work to make fit properly. A kit more suited for beginners or to add this specific car to a collection. An experienced modeler can make this into a nice build. If AMT ever retools this kit and upgrades it, I would build it again, otherwise I recommend this kit only to beginners.
