• The folks at Dyersville worst effort?..... *PIC*
  • Looks cool to me. GL&H Speed Shop So Bend, Ind... is that an actual place? *NM*
    • I don't think the GLH speed shop is real, it was on the Willys Gasser decal sheet. *NM*
  • Not a fan of that headline - the kit is standard AMT wire axle '60s promo based
    • I'm aware, but their names on the label, IMHO, makes them responsible for a kit that had as many issues of any I've ever had. Just my 2 cents. *NM*
  • I think it looks great! I’d be happy to put that on my shelf! *NM*
  • That would fit in nicely with my Chevelle collection. *NM*
  • The original AMT's to blame for that one. IIRC, Dyersville actually tried redeeming it a bit with the early 90s (blue car) reissue. Remember it's a modfied tool of the "we didn't get the promo contract for '68", ergo, that may be part of the explanation *NM*
    • The '68 was accurate, except for a non-stock engine. AMT did make Chevelle promos for '69, so it is correct too (except the '68 lower body trim) *NM*
      • Appreciate the correction on that one, I knew there was something about the AMT 68s, but it now occurs to me that I can't remember what *NM*
        • The other AMT Chevy kits weren't " '68", they were "FOR '68"...
      • Will someone please fill me in on what is needed to turn the '69 into a '68? This has always seemed unclear to me... and my '69 box has some items from Don labeled '68
        • Bumpers, some body work out back, vent panes, interior pattern. I've stockpiled parts for a '68 convertible *NM*
  • No... THE WORST kits to come out of Dyersville HAVE to be... *PIC*
    • The 1/16 scale versions weren't any better *NM*
