This is the ModelKing reboxing of the old AMT Hemi under Glass. That being said, there is a lot of flash as the molds are showing their age. It's not a real accurate presentation of the original 68 car. The original did not have a blown Hemi, it was fuel injected. The engine is also too far forward, so much so, that there isn't a hemi under the glass!
The kit goes together ok and is typical of older kits. The only thing I added were wires for the engine. The only chrome I left on the model was the front axle as the attachment points are easy to hide. The fit of the wheels leaves a bit to be desired and will require drying overnight to get a secure attachment.
The body as painted MM Gold, masked off and then painted MM Gloss Black. I painted all the chrome trim MM Chrome. The kit doesn't supply all the decals needed, all you get is the "Hemi under Glass" for the body sides. Mark Hiott
