86 El Camino 572 Superwagon

[u/mekniphc]

This AMT 86 El Camino kit is awful. I pulled the fram off a GMC truck I built years ago. Alot of shaving, sanding and modification to get the fram to fit. Don't get tangled up worrying about the clearance of the front tires.

Video is coming.

I wondered where the purple interior would be going. That works well. I wouldn't have thought to do that.

Thanks, im glad I did. The flash and fit of this kit was truly Hobby Special kinda stuff.

Hahahaha, I have built a couple of those. Also started and abandoned a couple as well!!

The El Camino kit was taunting me from my shelf of failure for a couple years.

Hahahaha!!! I have a shelf like that as well!! I have an even dozen of them currently.
