Just finished this. I was building another Trans Am race car and the thought occured that a mid-engine El Camino would be really different. So I combined both projects into this one. I added the drivetrain from an Accurate Miniatures McLaren M8B to an AMT '68 El Camino. It was a pretty tight fit to get it all lined up, but I’m pretty happy with the results.
interesting subject, and you’ve put a lot of effort in it. reminds me of super sedan category in australia which had ‘liberal’ modification laws, that saw cars like a VW type 3 with a chevy v8 engine.
You did a good job and it’s a cool truck. I understand about the remains of the kit, I have three of them in the stash-mocking me. Why do I have three you ask (one of each)? Got 'em for 10.00 apiece at the Dallas Nats in 2000 from the Accurate Miniatures guys. Seemed like a good idea at the time.
