This AMT Chop T Nearly Broke Me! | 1925 Ford Model T Full Build

In this build, I take on the AMT 1925 Ford Model T Chop T, building it as a drag-inspired hot rod complete with slicks, blower motor, pearl black paint, custom brake lines, weathering, and heat-soaked headers. What looked like a straightforward build quickly turned into one of the more frustrating AMT kits I've worked on. Between confusing instructions, fitment challenges, and suspension headaches, this Chop T definitely tested my patience. But after some problem-solving and a few custom touches, the final result turned out better than expected. Will this classic AMT kit earn a spot on the shelf, or should it stay in the stash?
