Anybody remember a AMT 3in1 car kit of a 1966 CHRYSLER IMPERIAL One version was a WESTERN PICKUP CUSTOM. The back of cab was gl*** down to the bed floor. I think it worked well as a pickup. It didn't look as heavy as the full size car can look. I liked building that model. Never gave it much though after until one day a pal and I were hitching to Gimli Beacch in 1970, What goes buy it one of these in soft yellow with wood grain inserts with low profile Fifth wheel trailer in matching colors. I thought I was seeing things. Two years later I saw the same car and trailer parked in a driveway in Swan River Manitoba. I often wonder the story behind that combination. Who built it and what was it doing in northern Manitoba. Maybe local dealership owner. They would be a very cool pair today!
Hey, "pimpamino" yeah, I'd drive a "Pimpamino"! S****ey Devils C.C. "Spending A Nation Into Generational Debt Is Not An Act Of Comp***ion!"
Thats the one! The photo I posted didn't look right to me. Do you have the kit in your hands? What is the name lower right? Alexander Brothers?
In case you didn't know: When you click on a thumbnail and it starts to open, click on that larger box again....because some pics are really huge if the poster did not reduce them. Yes you can read Alexander Bros
I sold one last year to a guy in vancouver wa and kept one there was three versions and i kept this one of my three .c
I never heard of the show either. I just thought the model was cool when I wa a kid. Never expected it to be a real car till I saw one. Wonder if any still exists?
