This week, I'm looking at another new kit, AMT's newest reissue of their excellent 1957 Chrysler 300C kit. As a BMW enthusiast, I have a real appreciation for the original performance luxury sedan, Chrysler's classic 300 series. In addition peeling the shrink wrap off of model kits on camera, I'm also involved with my local car museum, the Crawford Auto & Aviation Museum in Cleveland, Ohio. In our collection, we're fortunate to have a beautiful 1958 Chrysler 300D, which is not very different from the '57. Next week, I'll take you to the museum and give you a quick walkaround of the 1:1 car while I collect notes and reference material for my build. Stay tuned!
