Recommended Posts

here is my take on the Revell 50 Olds.

The top has been chopped 3 scale inches, car has been lowered 3 scale inches, dual french antennae added, trunk opening reshaped, trunk opened and hinged, throttle cable added, fuel line added from tank to fuel pump to carb, glass fuel filter, Detail Masters aluminum coil & bracket, FHP pre-wired 8 cylinder distributor, interior is 2 tone White & Brandywine

Scratchbuilt throttle linkage, throttle return spring, generator stand & aluminum muffler

Wheels and tires are from the kit.

Paint is House of Kolor Kandy Brandywine over Orion Silver b/c, upper area are HOK Snow White Pearl, Nason SelectClear
