Thats what I'm trying to do as well- Trying to build several at once, so while one is drying, I can work a bit on another kit

...Detail is sorely lacking on these things,finished the motor & realised there's no fuel pump,just made one & THEN the motor's finished!?? The fuel lines plug into the firewall originally,very strange?

Update..... I'm struggling with this thing Fellas,alot of love/hate ambivalence..ish stuff,if this is Monograms 'flagship' kit.....uuuUUuuHHhh. I can't understand why they can get so much detail into the smaller kit & not this thing? Anyway,just the body left & knowing when to say 'enough'.    |

Well you say its lacking in detail, but that last picture you took of it could pass for the real 1:1 deal -It looks great !

O.K next three off the rank are the '68 Riviera,the '65 Galaxie & the '66 Fairlane. The'68 Riviera is the hard to find year,very expensive from what I've found. The Galaxie is the 'Jolly Green Gasser' but not....green? The bonnet scoop is used facing one way for the Barris 'crusin'U.S.A' series & the other way for the 'J..G..Gasser' & the vintage AMT Galaxie convertible.The GTA is an old well built relic & off we goooo!!  |
