You guys are having too much fun in this group, so I thought I'd join the party. A friend of mine gave me this AMT kit in a bag last weekend and it looked like a fun build. I have the engine almost complete. I striped the chrome and shot it with Alclad chrome, and added a Fatkid distributor. The kit comes with a tubbed chassis and some real serious rubber on the back wheels. I'm fooling around trying to get the right stance at this stage.

This looks like a classic, Jack. Two questions, how did you strip the chrome, and, what colour(s) are you going to paint it?

Glad to see you want to play Jack. You have probably already used it but I have had good luck with Testors One Coat lacquer rattle cans.
Like I said in a reply to Simon I use oven cleaner to strip chrome.

This will be interesting, Jack. I find it unusual, that like Simon, your last build was a bi-plane... That must be a pre-requisite for building something on four wheels...lol

Here is an update on this project. As you can see I went with the Bright Orange color. I am stripping the chrome off the front and rear bumpers and they will be the body color.

I love that orange, Jack, this is going to be great!

I decided to add a roll cage to the interior and I'm looking for some seat belts as well.

That thought crossed my mind George, but as I do not have one on hand I guess it will have to do. The kit has a competition dash board but a stock steering whee,l and comes with Wheelie Bars which I don't think I'll use. I googled this car and found that it is built up many different ways including a roll bar with regular seats. I felt that this was a lot of car to be driven without a roll bar, but I did remove the back seat.
