"AMT Fails This One!"

uniqueithink

AMT you failed me on one of the most sought after Shelby's of the muscle car era. This kit is a level 2 with a small number of pcs. The rims in my kit were so full of flash, they were not salvageable. They went straight into the trash. There were a few fitment issues and yes they could be resolved to look fairly good. When I started to build my kit (2013) if felt I was at a skill 3 and should knock this one out of the park. Well it was put on a shelf and sat till 2015. By this time my skill set has caught up to finish this big can of worms I open. Once complete, the overall look was great and it was a fight from the middle to the end. The engine bay lacks details in the firewall and on the inner fenders. With no shock towers showing, it has no V brace to the firewall. The interior is a one pcs tub with moulded doors and backseat making it a bit harder to paint extra detail. The decals in my kit were no good and found any newer GT500 decal stripe would work.

"LOTS OF WORK"

bmorris (United States)

I really don't have a lot of good things to say about this model kit the mold seems to be very old there's a lot of Flash a lot of mold lines a lot where the pens were too deep into the plastic that you have to file sand and fill after a lot of work you can make the car look decent but it took a lot of work for me to get it to look like I wanted I did a lot of modification to it I also added a larger rear spoiler and a front spoiler and a hood scoop so I could use the Cobra parts if you use them you have to put a hole in the hood I would recommend that you buy this kit because of the price but you need to be an experience modeler to be able to do anything with it or if you like a challenging kit to customize like I did...

"Not pleased"

wtmertz

This was a difficult kit in my opinion. First of all, I did not understand the kit being molded in a light green color. This made painting of the parts far more difficult and required many coats to cover up the green color. Also all of the parts did not fit correctly and required a lot of trimming and sanding. I am not sure if I just got a bad kit or if this is standard for all AMT kits. I am not ready for another AMT kit anytime soon.

"68 Shelby got 500"

psharleydad (Ocoee,florida)

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
