Alot awsome stash kits in ur intro
Back in the day I built those out of just about all those boxes. Thank you for the trip down memory lane.
I built a ton of these AMT kits as a kid in the early 60s and had hours and hours of fun with them and dealer promos. I had a car lot and a junkyard, too. I remember the 32 Ford well. I built the coupe and the roadster, but don't recall the phaeton or 2-door sedan. If you wanted a coupe with side mounts ar a roadster with a rear mounted spare you could swap the fenders on these kits. The 36 Ford and 39-40 Ford kits were also tons of fun. I built mine basically stock but did put 40 Ford wheels on one of my roadsters. It's amazing even model kits are classics now.
Very cool!!
Thank you so much for that info! I have all of those but I refused to put my hard earned down to buy that BOYDSTER styled THING!
Awesome trip down memory lane. The 59 kit was the one I built my roadster out of that I showed a few weeks ago. Ron
Yeah I saw it.👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks for sharing a friend from Canada Rob 🇨🇦 😊
Cool history lesson
Thanks brother!
Well done Sir, well done. I remember the first 32 I put together ( around 59-60, I'd have been 12-13 ) were molded in black, as I recall. Yeah I'd love to see a "newly tooled" 32, Coup, roadster, all of them.
Man that is taking a trip down memory lane for sure. I had a lot of these kits back in the day. If you noticed the boxes back then were thicker and were only held closed with tape. Guess that is why they changed then to easy to open and take parts out of them. Really enjoyed the video. Thanks for sharing and making an old man feel even older. LOL!! Have a great week ahead my friend. Terry 👍🙂✋
Thanks Terry!!👍🏻👍🏻
That was really cool. 😎 A very interesting history👍😀thanks for showing and best wishes from jolly old England 🤓Pete 😎
Thanks Pete!!
One of the first kits I built, the 'B' ...royal blue body, tan top, flame decals! Speak, memory.
Awesome video brother and who doesn't love some 32 Ford's!! Lol😎👍
Thanks for posting, I really enjoy these little history video's
Very good video. A few corrections are in order, however. The 1959 issue 32 Roadster was also a 3 in 1, including the drag version. The 32 Vicky was a completely new tool (as was the coupe), and its two initial box art versions you showed were the promo dealership version, followed by the regular AMT branded hobby shop release. The 1964 issue 32 Roadster was also available as a dealer promo version. The 32 Tudor sedan actually made its debut around 1964 as a custom-only version as part of a double kit with the 40 Willys Coupe. Like the Phaeton, the body was later combined with the Vicky running gear and fenders to create the Street Rods version. The red Boyd Coddington coupe is not an original AMT kit, but is a modified reissue of the old MPC "Switchers" kit. Stay tuned, as a future issue of Model Cars magazine will be presenting a full history of the AMT 1932 Ford Roadster kit with a detailed review of each version.
Amen brother! Rock On! Build Strong!
Thanks!!👍🏻👍🏻
Great update great history lesson. Thank you buddy. I appreciate you sir. Have a great week
Great vid, thanks for sharing!!!
Great series Matt. A series on C1 Corvettes would be cool, especially since I own A 1960 and drive to local car shows. Cheers from Nova Scotia...
Thanks Ken!
Really cool video, great history, 32 Fords are always cool!
I have the Phaeton Vickie, it's a pretty cool kit and can be back dated.
Very nice presentation of the history of AMT's 32 Fords. Thanks for taking the time to share it with us.
Just a note about the Boyd coding ton 32 ford. It is actually a version of the Mpc Switchers series 32 ford 5 window coupe kit.
Cool! Thanks for sharing!
I sure miss the days when I could pick up these kits at Kmart for $8.49...
Very well thought out and presented video! Some models like the 32 Ford, or pick a year of Mustang or Camaro, get releases from several different model companies. I didn't realize that AMT themselves did so many different body styles of the deuce. Keep these vids coming, and the awesome build videos too!
Thank you!!
Just did an inventory the other day. 58 of all models, especially the earlier with the side mount tires which they quit producing, switching to the plain fender, Have a 3 window also. Also have a couple in 'Dealer Box' that ford dealers handed out.
Cool!!
I did an extensive history of the AMT 32 Ford Roadster, including reviews of the changes in each reissue in my "Vintage Workbench column in issue 213 of Model cars Magazine.
That's awesome!! I'll check that out
Great video... Thanks for making me go spend more money finding these kits!!! Lol
😆😆
The Tudor is much older, it was released in the early 60s as a 2 in one with the willys
Great video. Thanks for sharing
Thanks!!👍🏻👍🏻
Great video, thanks
Glad you liked it!
The 1961 roadster had an opening rumble seat that the previous two issues didn’t.
Great production Matthew, can’t wait for the next one!
Thanks Troy!!👍🏻👍🏻
Great video!!!! Brought back some memories.... Somewhere in there the released the American Graffiti car. The kit doesn't really represent the 1:1 car but it was marketed as such???? Thanks for sharing
That was a cool presentation, my friend, I enjoyed every bit of it (as I always do with every channel I sub to, I gave it a Like and Shared it too) 😊✌
Thank you!!
Cool.
very cool sir thank you
Thanks Big Eddie!!
Very cool video. Thank you
Thanks Anthony!!
Very cooll ✌👍
The only downside is that the body on all the original ‘32 kits was sectioned to allow it to fit the chassis when building fenderless. It makes it impossible to build a completely stock model, though of course most kids would have built it as a hot rod.
There was a Model A phaeton in 1:24 scale, which I built, but can't remember who made that one.
Monogram
@@danieljohnson9351 Yes, that's it. A nice model, as I recall, but didn't quite fit with all my other 1/25 scale cars but I gave it a spot in the fleet anyway.
Matt the sound id real low. Real hard to hear anything and I have the sound turned all the way up.
Good video, but you're background music is louder than your narration, making it difficult to hear.
