How accurate is the body in the AMT '34 Tudor? Looks a little "funny" to me. *NM*

Way off, that's why it hasn't been reissued. The chassis got reused in the 5W coupe *NM*
How is the 5W for accuracy? Thought I'd heard that Mueller scaled it from the car in his garage? *NM*
In addition to AMT body being too narrow, here's a rear comparison with 1:1.--------PIC INSIDE
That really shows how bad it is. Thanks *NM*
It's a Hot Rod - I mean, how wrong can it be? Hot Rods are pretty much always modified (?) *NM*
or am I thinking about a different kit? *NM*
No, the body is really bad. ,, almost Palmer quality. ,,, Plus the kit was also released in a factory stock version so there's that. *NM*
IIRC, Dennis Doty eith listed everything that was wrong with the '34 sedan body in Model Car Journal back when the kit was first issued, or he listed everything that was right.
That body looks to be based like the English version of that year Ford rather than the American. *NM*
Some have used that kit for exactly that, looked good too. *NM*
