RoR SnapShot Review 20110818* – AMT Ford LN-8000 Tiltback Car Hauler Review
Â
See the SnapShot Review by Kenny Anderson 
This was a long-term scratch-building project that started out as a refresh to a junker truck body sitting in my parts box. As I progressed with the build, everything got more involved. All I basically had to start with was a cab and hood along with a partial frame from an old AMT LN-8000 racecar hauler that I bought back in ’71 when it was new. I don’t know what happened to the hauler bed or the rest of the frame. I had some idea what I wanted this to be, but never really planned on it going this far.
 For the modeler – This project borrows from the thing that every modeler has – a parts box and junk kits that seem to come from everywhere and nowhere in particular. The magic as Kenny has found is in using your ingenuity and skills to bash those pieces along with a little scratch building to come up with something truly unique. Sectioning, scratch building augmentation and imagination are all revealed in this RoR SnapShot build.

Really nice job Kenny it’s always cool to see what other modelers can come up with from there old parts boxes. Some of my best builds have started with an old junk bodys and other parts from other kits I didnt use or just a box of stuff I pick up at swap meets or G sales. Keep up the great work looking forward to see more. I just finished a Kit bash race car I’ll sent pics to Doug and see what he thanks about putting it in.
