AMT Jim Cushman Plymouth Duster - COMPLETE

Oh!

       I remember those. Weren't they called Plymouth Dustups or sumpin? Model looks great by the way!

Thanks for the kind words.  I'd muscle through a dozen of these types of kits because I dig the subject.  Now on the the EBBRO F1 kits and the Meng GT40 :)

I built an AMT car kit earlier this year and you ain't kidding about the flash.  However, mine went together pretty well after all the cleanup.  It is a great car and subject so I understand the desire not to punt.  Despite its problem it looks great.  Nice job.

Nice job on the Dustpan (as non-mopar people referred to them)

  I like it.

Thanks mississippivol - I'd love to do a late model sportsman short track camaro!

Thanks Greg - ya, it had to get done and on the shelf with it's tiny box :)

That looks good.

I was going to say you gotta finish it just to be able to display it with the little box, but you already did!

I was right about the suspension... I don't have all 4 wheels down :/.  Just buttoned it up and not proud of this one, but sure makes you appreciate the good quality kits we have today.

I do like the tiny model box though ;)

This is a terrible kit!  The flash... every single part has flash and ejector pin markings, lack of locating... argh!  Though the big decals went on nice and responded well to setting solution.  If I were'nt enamored with the late model sportsman I'd punt on this one.  I'm so apprehensive about the suspension and mounting the wheels.  We will see.  I'm hoping this one looks good on the shelf - just don't look inside or under the hood :-0.  I just don't have patience for these old kits, especially after building the Tamiya 1/12 Nija ZR XX which was an engineering and molding work of art.

I have alway's liked the look of that kit, but never bothered to get one.

I will be "Observing" from over there ......... In the corner ......  with the Cat.
