Excellent work on an older built kit Trevor! She looks a lot better now with all the upgraded details. I like that molded glowing plastic that Monogram made then. That blue definitely has a nice hue to it!
I literally just finished that kit. Being a 1:1 A-12 owner, I tried to make an accurate version of a 440 six pack version. A few things to note. This kit does not contain the proper "H" wheels (black steelies) that came on all A-12 cars. I had to purchase aftermarket wheels from one source and redline tires from another. Another couple of things to take into consider : No head restraints are included with the kit and the interior tub in my kit was from a Plymouth as evidenced by the emblem on the rear seat. An easy fix that you should consider is to remove the "spine" that runs down the center of the scoop. A-12 cars did not have this raised ridge. The floor pan should be grey prime with. hint of overspray along the edges.
Gotta question for you, On the AMT 40 Ford Coupe the Second engine option w/3 carbs and Not Blower Engine option, Think it's a Buick engine, Do you know by any chance where Distributor goes? Nothing in directions and not familiar with that engine. Thanks and Hope you don't mind being my Goto guy on kit questions.
I have a video on this channel where I build that engine with all the different options. The video is called Model Car Garage Tips and Tech - How To Build the Buick Nailhead Optional Engine - AMT 1940 Ford Kit Just copy and paste that into youtube and it should take you there.

Check out 70s Rock Band, Black Oak Arkansas.. Halls of Karma. Another one to check out Rory Gallagher, Shadow Play Live. I call the Late Rory Gallagher, King Of The Fender Strat, I call Judas Priest, the First Real Heavy Metal Band.

Thank you so much!
Very nice. The brown interior looks rich with the dark blue.
Thank you. It is quite different.
I remember in 2019 i finished my amt 72 Chevy Cheyenne that i had started in 2005. Something also neat about our hobby.
Time and patience pays off!
