Well used Plymouth
Posted by rommelkiste on Wednesday, May 15, 2013 1:33 AM

This is not a new build, it's been in my display case for a while.  Thought I might post a few pics here as its not been viewed since 1989!  It's the AMT 1941 Plymouth kit weathered and rusted as a discarded hobby stock racer.  Most of the rust is real rust and pastels with landscape materials from the model train section.

Nothing ever fits……..and when it does, its the wrong scale.

To make mistakes is human.  To blame it on someone else shows management potential.

Very nice build! Nice work with the camera too. I'm chicken to try a rust scheme. Maybe one of these days.

Really nice.  The holes in the rear fender are just right!

That's an impressive piece of work. And that's an understatement.

Great photography, too.
