                        Built this using AMT Kit # 38396.

                        Fun Fact: In the movie they actually used a 58 Plymouth Belvedere not a Fury. A true Fury would have of had the gold chrome in the front grille and side panels. The Silver Chrome was the Belvedere.

                        With that being said, I built this Belvedere/Fury as the car looked on the film.

                        Awesome build. In the book it was a 4 door.

                        Thanks... that is correct... Stephen King mentioned later that he didn't know that the Fury came only as a 2 door car.

                        One of my all time favs!

                        I would happily crush somebody's skull to own the real thing.

                        The car just has a sinister look to it.

                        made the mistake of showing this to the wife. As she loves the horror genre I may have to build it for her. AFTER i am done with the psycho bates mansion

                        LOL... As AMT kits go, this one was not too bad to put together. She will enjoy the finished product.

                        Thanks Griffin... LOL, when she was finished, strange things started to happen, Surprise  like one day she is facing left and then the next she is facing right.... I just let her be. Big Smile

                        I just watched this about a month ago on cable--I forgot what a truly excellent movie this was!

                        Your model is superb! I really couldn't see anything to critique. It just totally rocks!

                        I have this model too. I want to find a way to make the radio light up!
