I don't get the fuss over these.  They're oversize for 1/25, the hubs and bolt detail look toy-like and the offset on the 5 spokes is huge.  I bought some of each and offloaded them as soon as I could.

The injection manifold in the AMT '55 Nomad is about the best in 1/25.  It's also in the '55 Chevy Sedan street machine kit (with the ugly pink car for box art).  I'm not sure if it's in the stock version of the sedan?

Nobody makes angled stacks like that, AFAIK, so you'll have to make those yourself.

Check out the December 2013 issue of Hot Rod magazine....57 Ford with 10 spoke front wheels, gasser. Cool car!!

That's one of those confused modern reinterpretations, not a gasser in the original sense of the word.  10 spokes are a recent creation to allow a five stud mounting.  The original American Racing wheels were 12 spoke spindle mounts, in 15" and 18" as Jesse already pointed out.

The old tool Revell '57 Chevy (the one with opening doors) has a nice finned timing cover.  I used one on this:

Nice work so far, I like the looks of the early ones.

How's this?  Unfortunately, it's on Fotki, so many of the images are MIA.  At least this one with the dash is still there...
