• So of the AMT & MPC Super Stockers - which is the best one? Or maybe the least worse one? If you were going to build "just one", which would it be? *NM*
  • "super stockers" or "modified stockers" that is ... *NM*
  • Which series is best of the two? I'd say the Super Stocker series because it was an attempt at replicating the purpose built short trackers that were becoming common in the mid 1970s, and looked more authentic to the eye. *PIC*
    • Here's the one I built as a kid, untouched after sitting in storage for decades *PICS*
      • A couple others built as a kid - same deal, untouched out of storage. *PICs*
        • Pretty good builds as a kid. I like them. Really want that Camaro. *NM*
          • Thanks. These were pretty much my favourite kits back then, which I suppose is why I seem to overparticipate in discussions about them... lol. My enthusiasm is genuine, though. *NM*
            • Thanks for this! I'm looking to replicate something generally like what would have run on the dirt track near where I grew up in the 70's and 80's
              • Sounds doable for sure! Our hosts have some available (see link)... *LINK* *PIC*
                • Sorry, I made a mistake. I just double checked my reissue GTO Super Stocker kit and it actually has dirt tires with what looks like the same tread pattern as the originals, but the new ones have Good Year tampo printed in white on the sidewalls.
                  • That's all great information - thank you! *NM*
                    • Glad to help! *NM*
