Hello.......last month I was at a swapmeet and I stumbled upon a box of various built models and parts.......I like to collect model parts for future builds......anyway I offered the guy $20.00 dollars for the box......he agreed.......I went home and just put the box in the corner......well 2 week`s ago I decided to check out what I bought for $20.00 ........all the built kits were 1964`s.......a Falcon, El Camino,Pontiac leman`s,Corvette, Buick Riviera and this Buick Wildcat........Well when I looked on the bottom of the kits.....they all had 4 screws on the bottom to fasten the kit together.......I thought maybe these were old kit`s.......Well I looked on Ebay and saw that these were old Amt custom kits.........they all have engines too!......well I took them all apart and stripped the paint and chrome......almost all of them came out in good shape......well I decided to make the "Wildcat" first......I made a few changes......wired and plumbed using "Pro Tech": braided line,spark plug wire,detailing wire,coil, wire looms,and tire valve stems....... foil......flocking.....H.O.K. Khameleon paint.....Slixx mini flake.......alclad paint.......and to top it off I used Bill "Scaledetail" Skeletons......please check out my inside photos too!......thank`s for looking.
Great paint job... Great details... Another winner..
