This is what happens when you have no new kits to build. Built shortly before I started painting my builds. Paint applied in the 70's, again when not having kits around to build. Experimented with various shades of Testor's black and silver bottle paint and applied by brush. Decals were not applied till around 2006/2007






Frame from AMT '57 Chevy, Body from and early '60's Mercury Comet, with parts from 6 other "scrapped builds, plus mostly scratch built roll cage from parts sprues and floorboard from file card...

Looks pretty cool for what you had to work with - you did a good job with what you had

If you got the spare parts there's nothing wrong with putting them to good use
