Aluminum Model Toys (AMT) is an American brand of scale model vehicles. The former manufacturing company was founded in Troy, Michigan, in 1948 by West Gallogly Sr. AMT became known for producing 1:25 scale plastic automobile dealer promotional model cars and friction motor models, and pioneered the annual 3-in-1 model kit buildable in stock, custom, or hot-rod versions. The company made a two-way deal in 1966 with Desilu Productions to produce a line of Star Trek models and to produce a 3/4 scale exterior and interior filming set of the Galileo shuttlecraft. It was also known for producing model trucks and movie and TV vehicles.
The AMT brand was bought in 1978 by the Lesney company of UK, then by competitor Ertl in 1983, then by the Round 2 company in 2012.

The kit was launched initially in 1960, as part of the AMT Trophy Series.
Since then it has been reissued numerous times, often with variations to, or omissions from the inaugural issue.
The example shown here is the 1967 "25th Anniversary" issue from the AMT Street Rods series.
The kit is currently again in production, with very similar box art, but without any reference to the 1932 Ford's 25th Anniversary, of course.

The AMT 1940 Ford Deluxe Coupe has been reissued many times since its debut as a Trphy Series kit in 1960. One could say it was downright continuously available for the past seven decades.
The optional custom and hot rod parts can be different from one issue to another, but it always contained a Nailhead Buick as an alternative engine.
