I remember putting this together back in the mid ^60^s. Hated the round lights. The optional square lights were nice but had to fix the round holes in the body. This was before I could afford paint so all my models were white.

I live about 2 miles from the Studebaker National Museum and grew up seeing Avantis driving around town! I might just have to get this kit. Great video.

I remember this kit in 1965, it had accessories to make it a SPY version with tire cutter on the wheel hub and secret gun compartments. Great fun.

That is a sweet kit one of my first when I was a kid. Looking forward to seeing the video.

I just picked up the AMT Avanti kit some days ago, mainly because I am the happy owner of an Avanti II. Same kit but different box art and the decal sheet was reduced to registration numbers only. Only disapointment for me was that the hood detail sticking up on the Avanti II is slightly different, so I have to sand it down to get it to the right shape. Needless to say, but the plan was to build it just like the car I own. Know this is an old video but couldn't resist replying.

I have a Lindberg 1963 Ford Mustang Concept model kit. It has opening Doors, Hood and trunk very well detailed. I will have a video of it soon.

Wow, I didn't realize they re-issued this and didn't realize it was this awesome! I have an older issue of this kit but I never looked in the box. Now I'm wondering if mine is the same. Thanks for the review!

I got this while back and kinda thought same thing. Once I reviewed it I wanna build it badly.

I bought the reissue that came after the one in the video less than a week ago at an Ollie's along with the 1971 Mach I kit from "Live And Let Die". And then this video shows up in my feed without me doing as single search on the car or the kit. Interesting. I guess my phone was spying on me while I was shopping.

is there a '56 Studebaker model kit? Was thinking about building one for my Dad as a birthday gift. It was his favorite car to drive.

I would rate this a skill level 3 except it doesn't have an opening trunk. the steering rod pins must be heated with a solder, that makes it a skill 3 even if its rated 2.

got this and built it for my Dad for christmas. having a great deal of trouble getting the body onto the chassis, haven't got it right yet. looks like a high riser at the front I looked underneath and didn't find what was keeping the body stuck. Exhaust pipes do not fit in notches on frame but forced them and it still doesn't go down. It is hard to keep from loosening the steering rods from the kingpin when attempting to fit the body. will try again.

Hi. I just ordered the 1/32 Ford model T from Lindberg, a small model not overly reviewed well by the big Am----, and no entries on model kit sites. I'm sure I can make this tiny model kit better with a video show of parts first, like you do, and run it through full build, paint and all, which you don't do. Permission to do so? I want you to build a model. Talk is okay, but where are the final results, goodfella?

Thanks for the review. I didnt really like the look of this car. But it looks like a good build, think i may get me one now.

The windshield and other windows aren't fitting very well. The instructions are garbage. My kit and instructions say Trophy Series, but didn't get any of the brochures. I'd like to see a build video of this kit. And how they get the clear parts to fit. NOT an easy kit to build.
