These are all AMT pro shop pre-painted kits. The only thing I have done is add a little detail in here and there.

The woody is awesome. On the Impala, was there a choice of hoods you could use (custom or stock)?

Thanks Geoff & Rich.  Rich the hood could be used without the scoop, but it had a chrome intake opening instead.

I too build plastic kits, mostly early Fords. I like to modify them to versions not available in kit form.

Thank you John,  These kits are a lot of fun to build.  I have another 20 or so of these Pro-Shop kits to build, then it is on to building models that will need full painting.

Nice work, and an impressive collection. I've built hundreds of kits over the decades, but not so much anymore.d
