Very Hyper Dude! Channel should be called Hyper Dude

I had this kit, as well as Revell's Model A Woodie kit. I built them simultane- ously. When I had finished a model, I would take it to the common area of my apartment complex to show my neighbours. I already had built two of AMT's Ford Model T, one as a car, the other as a depot hack--I believe this last was the forerunner of the pickup truck--which I also included. The elders in the place would remember their grandparents driving them.

Absolutely beautiful! Love this kit.

Me too!

"The sissy bars" heheh I haven't heard that term in so long I forgot all about it.... and I used to be heavily involved with bicycles when I was a kid too. We'd raid the dumps for bike parts and build bikes out of what was still good. Then race them, jump them and travel to "far away" towns in gangs to buy candy, soda, and popcicles. All our parents said was to be back by dinner or else.... lol Thanks for the memories man. And I'm talking about the 70's, not the 50's. Times have sure changed. I like the choices you made when deciding how you wanted to build this kit. I love it when there are a lot of options. I hope Round2 keeps these types of kits coming. One of the things you've taught me is when to spray paint and when to hand paint among many other things... dry brushing, washes, what glues to use when, windows and a whole lot of other very helpful techniques. Love your videos. The model looks spectacular. And of course I love the bike.

Awesome as per usual Chris! I was thinking while watching this video, have you ever considered building a model that you REALLY spend some time with to see how awesome (whatever you build) it would come out? I always hear you say “you could do this or that to make it look GREAT, but I don’t really care cause I gotta get this content out.” This woody would have been a GREAT one to see what you REALLY could do! I’d LOVE to see what YOU could do if ya spend the time to do it. Don’t get me wrong, I love the “fast and furious” (lol) way you build cause that just makes for more/new content. But maybe a 2 or 3 parter to show what builders CAN do if you really take your time with a build. As always, thank you for the great content Chris… it always makes my day when I get the notification that you’ve dropped another build!

I like building quick, I just like getting more and more kits done. Every new kit is a new adventure for me, keeps me going. I'll get into the weeds with a kit some day, but for now the two day build process is enjoyable and I've always loved just making them from the box as is.

Sometimes spending to much time on one kit could put you in a slump . I get really frustrated if I spend more than a few weeks on a kit. I almost feel like saying the hell with this and not build for awhile . I'm like Chris. I want to build quick , enjoy it and move on to the next cool kit sitting on my shelf.

Love it! I especially love the one-piece woody body and the separate inner panels. Always enjoy kits with several build options.

Awesome job once again. Man, I gotta get this one! It's worth it just for the decals! Love that flaming skull. 💀

I would love to see you build the 1940 ford coupe kit by AMT, seems like you’ve done very every other year and body style for the generation 😂 but as a “precautious” modeler, i like seeing how they turn out, and I much prefer your quality of videos, as any kit you’ve built and I’ve bought myself…..worked exactly how you said it would from blemishes to perfections. But please do a 1940 ford coupe!!

It was very clever of AMT to mold the inner “wooden” panels separate from the rest of the body, which makes painting a lot easier. I have the Revell kit, and it’s going to be tedious. Nice build, Chris.

The thing that I’d found irritating about the Revell version “back in the day” was that the woody panels were warped, and elementary-school-me was unable to reshape them beyond gluing the whole thing into a solid mass.

You could fairly easily rub those side panels down on some coarse paper to thin them a bit and then glue real wood veneer on the outside. I may have to look into that.

Another *outstanding* review & build , *Chris* ! Now I'm going to have to get one or three of these ! In early 1988 , *Tim* *Boyd* did a buildup of this kit for Scale Auto Enthusiast . At that time , I was turned off by those crummy tyres which AMT et al. was including ( those "snow tyre" Rallye GT junks ) , so I relented ; I didn't have any spare tyres at that time. But , I digress... Keep 'em coming !

Enjoyed the video a lot, I used to make models when I was a kid, a lot of the Tom Daniels kits, things have changed a little especially painting techniques, one suggestion could you do narration and describe the paints used and your techniques for getting certain looks, for those of us that have been out of modeling for 45+ years, it would help guide me back into the hobby, especially the painting (like black washes and all these modern paints and paint techniques like using markers and pens and where to get them and how to use them. Thanks Paul

Beautiful. I want to build the same version as you did👍1929 SUV🙂

I WISHD ID HAD THIA AS SCALEMODEL

I had one similar to that back in the '60s but mine came with two surfboards instead of the bike

Is that bedroll the only remnant of the 'Hot Curl' surfer dude character that originally was part of this old MPC kit from the '60s?

Is this the Beverly Hillbillies truck? I almost think it is. I am looking up at my actual tv kit. I've always loved AMT. My whole life they have been there. Those un-identifiable decals I believe are center hub decals for the mags?

No, it is a repop of a kit that was originally done by MPC in the 60's. I think it was one of the first that had a hot rodded Ford flathead v-8 (with the aftermarket aluminum heads). Don't hesitate to buy this, it's a very good kit.

@blizzy6392

2 жыл бұрын

No. The Beverly Hills truck kit was its own kit design, plus it was a 1921 Oldsmobile not a Ford. This kit was born as a 1928 Ford Model 'A' Tudor sedan, designed by MPC for AMT in 1964. In 1965, MPC converted the sedan kit to a '28 pickup and '29 Woody wagon kits. In 1966, the two options were combined into one kit ("The Wild Ones") along with the bicycle and a 'Hot Curl' surfer figurine with surfboard. Hot Curl soon disappeared and that's what's left of this old kit for us today.

That looks amazing Chris! Awesome job and tips as usual buddy. I would build mine exactly the same! Take care mate. ☺️👍
