Somewhere, I have an AMC Gremlin you could have, ‘ceptin’ I don’t know where it is...

You know I'm in! Just got my kit last week.

There is so much potential here in a 1971 orange Gremlin!

General Wee

Hah! That's great. Now I took some notes back in 2016-17 on building a General Lee. I was also at the time interested in finding a Jo-Han kit of a stock car so let me ask you gents if the following hold true as I am not a member of the other forum.

• Revell-Monogram "Pro Modeler" '69 Dodge Charger R/T kit #5937
  AMT/Ertl Eckler Corvette kit #8053 / racing rims

Thanks.

After a few discussions over on FSM and a bit of research the latest MPC kit (2011 MPC706L/12) seems to have the right body, though there's some question on the wheels. They look the part if you're not counting spokes. Here's the kit I picked up on ebay

Cool. Thank you so much! Thank you! That is a great overall view of the layout with the sprues! Thanks again!!! If there is a group build I would like to design the badge!

That's a good one! As a Daisy fan - I'm saying whoa... nice. As a car guy I'm thinking B*tch get off my car!

Hah! Nothing's quite as good as "General Whee," and the Gremlin as General Lee. This thread is fun. Ain't that the point of having a hobby? I think I could possibly make an exception for her putting pressure on the paint and frame, though.
